State of Emergency

A bad virus 

has taken state

South America's infection 

complicates

Antibiotics 

required to kill the germs

Open heart surgery 

removes infesting worms


Gang leaders 

Of the wild, wild South

"Jail Minds " 

Casting spells about   

Corrupted elements

Rob the people blind 

Not a drop of water

Miseries of every kind

 
Hearts be strong

Nicolas Maduro falling down  

This tyrant's time is done

Venezuela's freedom has begun

Victory's won

It's the state of my heart...a country so rich, robbed by pirates to starve...

I sure do hope that Venezuela takes back their rights. I have students from there and some have been granted asylum in the US. I hear it's a beautiful country and would love to visit it and see it free again. Good poem against all tyranny.

I certainly wish this was true of every country on every continent in the entire universe, Arturo: "the end of tyranny has come" I am looking forward to this in heaven.
