RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL POLITICS
Unity
It takes a strongman
To unite the civilized world
In determined opposition
An act of bald aggression
Has achieved what was impossible
Only two short years ago
Vladimir the Great
Vladimir the Aggressor
Vladimir the War Criminal
Vladimir the Uniter
Vlad says war so step aside
All of Europe from Madrid to Brussels
From Lisbon to Paris
From London to Warsaw
From Ankara to Stockholm
From Budapest to Rome
From Prague to Berlin
Stands in unison to cry out No!
You shall not drive us back
Into the age of perpetual war!
No! you shall not conquer neighbors
Without paying a price!
No! you shall not disturb the world order!
You will withdraw from Ukraine
Or sacrifice your personal fortune!
You will withdraw from Ukraine
Or become the planet’s leading pariah!
You will withdraw from Ukraine
Or watch your people suffer!
The Russian people do not deserve this fate
The Ukrainian people deserve it less
Withdraw now and change your ways
