101-A Simple Protest Poem

 


                                                Upon the Ocean’s Breezes


 Listen! The ocean breezes are beckoning across the Isle Ellis. They are calling extraordinary artisans accustomed to nature listening. Apres’ her lady’s commissioning to let our collective lights shine brighter than the torch lit for Liberty, to let our collective voices be raised for all of Humanity, crying from the ocean’s depths of Peasantries, combating the silence of indifference, armed with swords of insignificance, to stem the rising tides of Russian Armageddons. Turning back the raging seas of Radical Extremism’s blasphemies spewing from the cauldrons tended by the World’s Aristocracies, beckoning across the sea of mediocrity.

How do you even begin to address the atrocities that are being waged against the Nation of Ukraine? My thoughts are very hawkish at the moment. Yes, the tide of World Outrage is shifting and it does look like we will get there. Do not let the simplicty of the Poetry lessen the urgency of the Mission.
