Nationalism Poems - Poems about Nationalism

From ashes of pain, true leaders rise, Forged in struggle’s unyielding cries. Yet now, from gilded thrones of greed, False prophets spawn, with lies they breed.

It grants inclusiveness to those so threatened by autocracy. I am just a poet, still believing synergy has wings, I am just a poet trusting economic popular will, a working-class autarky of mutual...

FROM A COMMENT TO ONE OF MY GOOD READERS/ Soupers: "It's a blessing to have known Jesus through one's parents. I was 30 when I began to take Jesus seriously ("an acquired taste," for a Hindu nationalist). It's NATIONALISM - of whatever kind - THAT IS CAUSING WARS, not God/Jesus. Study wars & it's civil &...
