RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS
Military Conscription in Germany
When counting crimes against humanity
Do not neglect armed conscription
It is a symptom of our insanity
A morally bankrupt predilection
The desperate hour is drawing near
And we are desperate for solutions
Our trepidations and our fears
Are leading us to devolution
An army of conscripts will not serve
With the force of volunteers
A cause that’s just does not deserve
A fighting force that’s commandeered
We are not like the North Koreans
We do not do what despots do
That is not the right idea
To raise an army fair and true
If a great army must be raised
Let us appeal to the heart and mind
Move beyond conscription daze
Leave those evil ways behind
(Germany considers conscription)
