RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: IRAN
Iran War
“We wanted help. We did not want bombs.”
Bishop Desmond Tutu
Of all the lame things this president has done
War with Iran is the topper of them all
He thinks because we’re bigger, we’ve got
them on the run
But this is the sound of a desperation call
This is not some childish game
Where you remove them from the board
Deflect all sense of blame
And sound the victory chord
When you destroy the heads of state
You are left with mass disruption
You’ve condemned them to a fate
Of upheaval and corruption
Is that what you had in mind
When you declared yourself supreme?
Your policies are rank and blind
You philosophy is extreme
Iran is your last stand
At least let’s hope that is the case
What other horrors have you planned?
What other nightmares have you chased?
