"You're gonna face trouble if Navalny dies in prison, 2021"—President Biden Martyr & Saint 1976-2024 By tempting fate, speaking truth to power, he languished in icy confinement This courageous proud Russian was a bold soul of staunch refinement This tormented martyr, and prophetic sage, silenced and confined to a cage Continued to fight his tenacious battle, while we heeded his words of outrage By a cold-hearted tyrant, a man of truth and honor with contempt was slain In the nation of his birth, their saint for justice they will anoint and ordain A man who spoke out to a dictator for his people’s sake and for humanity Well known worldwide for his stance against Vladimir Putin’s insanity By tempting fate, he was sentenced to solitary confinement and sent to Sibiria As bizarre as it sounds, a place where evil throws one away for nonsensical trivia Tortured with poison and beaten daily, still he spoke out in chains, a martyr All awhile the cruel ruler of his homeland proved again and again an evil liar A despot has his way, on this day Alex Navalny died, a tyrant’s signature at play Tyrants may come, tyrants may go, this hero’s legacy of love shall forever stay Minds can’t comprehend, can’t wrap our brains 'round the severity, bizarre Angered is his family who demand righteous revenge; O Lord let it not be war
