Many problems

So many problems, Myanmar is no longer “democratic.”
the army staged a coup and the famous lady- I can´t spell her name
was arrested and sent back to her villa by the lake.
In India, the prime minister has borrowed Trump´s textbook
and has a profound contempt for Muslims and farmers who give us our daily bread and rice.
In China, a group of none Chinese are being re-educated
to become nice people keeping their trap shut and wave flags.
The sainted Biden will not lift the sanction against Iran,
following, no doubt, Israel´s dictate.
Did we know there is an autonomous Jewish state in Russia?
I think it is near the border China, and the wars of Europe didn’t
touch them, we are not told of this, not by newspapers, it cramps the style of Russia haters.
I cannot pretend I care about the many problems it does not keep me up at night, as it is, I think of Palestinians and the catastrophe that befell them.
