Best Rallying Cry Poems

On the twenty fourth of February in twenty twenty two
Russia invaded Ukraine and fierce fighting did ensue 
Vladimir Putin it seems, wants to restore the iron curtain
And sadly he will succeed, of that it looks certain.

Tanks and missiles, the Russians used in their attack
But against...

The waters trickling under the
crossing bridge grows ever dormant

And on the one and only discernable
route into this village languishing beneath
there is a old rickety swinging sign that says

" Welcome to Eden "

We trust you enjoy your stay

Where the church choir in the district
can be muffled...

We war with impunity

And weaponise such things as the 
beauty of flowers

And all for what ?

When come today we have to guard the statues and Cenotaph that commemorate our fallen heroes

Only for them to suffer in death the indignity of being treated with such contempt...

An unleashed scream echoes through the valley 
Rallying cry of the wyrm 
Confess your madness 
In shearing bouts that cleave mountains
Leaving them asunder 

Fire storms rage, scorching terra 
Lighting strikes arc across the sky, in disjointed bolts
Lava spews from Hephaestus’s furnace
 
The ever imposing demon...

NEVER AGAIN!

How many times can we claim
“Never Again”
As justification for our
Systematic genocide!

“Never Again”
Has worked time and again,
To control the world’s media
Revisiting Nazi death camps
So we will never forget

As a Jew,
I must support Israeli atrocities
Or I am labeled anti-Semitic,
Ignoring the actual definition of Semitic
Which includes both...

Are you a poet, as some folks say,
who can with your words, portray
emotions that can make a reader cry?

Are you a poet, as some folks believe,
who can with your words, have us grieve,
for a friend who has said Goodbye?

Are you a poet, whose words can...

A fairyland fable is a magic table floating around but nit with a rallying cry. That is purely reserved for several synchronised cruise ships whose sunbathing missions thwart many a delivery driver. It is with great interest that an interest is neither a monetary aim...

To give everything for nothing
Occupy a desk, to provide something

Work for God every day willingly
Openly pronounce faith, filling me
Right up with all that I need
Kindling a fire, that all may be freed

Forgoing the ego for the greater good
Original, free-willed man better understood
Risking it all

Giving it...

It’s a broken world
we need imperfect solutions
and there are plenty of questions

is it even possible to correct systemic
problems with individual solutions?

I recycle, so everything’s ok, ya?

some would usher in a revolution
while others would stand pat, thinking
they can marginally beat the house

the young believe the old...

Embellished, shined, publicized

Display put on their empty core

Listen! You must abide laws. (Seize!)

The narrative of freedom, a screen.

Adore something you know nothing about

Honey like texture of sweat and sour

Fools your taste of flavor, makes you devour

Your truest nature, freshness, born greatness.

Smell their petals of fragrant...

Every house of nobility
Has a standard to fly.
‘Tis a banner of distinction,
And a rallying cry.

It represents our history,
The deeds of bygone days.
An emblem of our character,
And pennon of our ways.

But standards soil so easily
When blemished by disgrace.
The stain from an unrighteous act,
Will never leave its...

Iran ousted the Shah's tyranny,
backing a Muslim theocracy.
And hate crushed any hope of freedom,
for fear, demonized democracy.

Now, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei
touts faith with a political twist.
An old popinjay stuck in the past,
he rules the land with an iron fist.

Don't accept religious slavery,
shout "Allah O Akbar!" from...

"Over The Top!" was the battle cry of the First World War!
At the Captain's signal, from the trenches doughboys would pour!
Shoulder to shoulder with bayonets fixed, steel glinting in the sun,
On they rushed, some to live, others to die, to face the fearless Hun!

On they...
