Subway School

Subway School, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @Brianrrs37 on Twitter/X)

The kids of Ukraine, incapable of understanding
Adult war, they live in fear every day of dying
And those with the GOP are constantly lying
That it is a war of choice, they silence history’s voice

Russia’s President Putin, is the product that’s certain
Of old Soviet Communism, a KGB spy on the sly
He will always try, to interfere in our politics

Their schools not made of bricks, underground they sit
In the subways they sit at desks, to avoid the bombing above
GOP shows them no love, abandon them they would
Not that they should

Occupied once was Poland, and half of Berlin as well
Russia put them through hell, the truth will not be quelled
As Ukraine get’s shelled, classes underground are held
The shaking of the earth, the kids are what it’s worth

Kidnapped some are too, by the Russian army who
Commit war crimes all day through, all their schools are all gone
Burned them to the ground, flattened all around
Nighttime booms, danger looms, no shelter to be found

PTSD, surely those kids see, misery every day
The GOP wants to take away, what little safety they have
They’ll end up on a slab, or prisoners of war
Putin will want more, of this all should abhor

Rumble, shake, blast and take, more territory
Terrified are the teachers, the scars that will leave such
November 9th, 1989, the wall fell, yet memories rust
The kids are in the subways and the GOP is not just
(end)

It is bad enough the asshole GOP want to abandon our ally and cede Ukraine to Putin, the literal product of Soviet Communism and a KGB spy. Putin who just met with Communist dictator Kim Jong Un to ask North Korea for weapons to continue to attack our ally Ukraine.

If anyone thinks Putin would stop at Ukraine if we gave Ukraine up, you are fooling yourself. And on top of that saying to the kids of Ukraine, “fuck you”.
