Bloody Charter Of Rights Poem by Richard Wlodarski

Bloody Charter Of Rights

Rating: 5.0


We don't have
All that time
Nor money
Resources

Indigenous
Our people
Same flesh and blood
Our lifeline

We can't afford
To give them more
Food for their soul
Water for life

Our home and
Their native land
Stolen by Greed
Robbed of sole life

Indigenous
Our people
Same flesh and blood
Our lifeline

The Charter of Rights
Our guarantee
Multimillions gift
To Omar Khadr

We don't have the money
For their intervention
End the women killings
Prevent the suicides

Indigenous
Our people
Same flesh and blood
Our lifeline

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
As a Canadian, I am totally appalled by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's decision to reward a terrorist, and at the same time, turn his back on his own people. And to have the audacity to defend himself with The Charter of Rights! Shame on him and his spineless government! And this from someone who voted him into power.

As i may lack of knowledge of what really happening there, i wont say anything about politics or whatsoever there...I just hope that every Canadians and all people around the world have great things to stay strong, live as we deserved regardless who we are. We just a simple and great life..thats what i wish we all get. I hope all terrorism also can be stopped because i believe it just a group of selfishness people that work for themselves but use ideology as weapon, to weaken us...Long live Justice and love!

Repetitive words highlight the kind of outrage felt by the patriotic countrymen over the government's bizarre decisions. There should be a proper rationale behind all govt acts. Poet's Notes are quite vociferous about it. Thanks for coming forward with your opinion. Thanks.

2. The immigrants have usurped the powers of the ethnics, their land, their wealth, everything. In fact looted them. So, they are scared of the ethnic community as such. They deliberately keep the ethic community out of everything.

Justin Trudeau is no exception. True, he had promised'Sunny days'. But not for the ethnic people. Every nation built by immigrants and ruled by them, have systemically excluded the ethic community from the mainstream. (Contd)

Once when raised into authority, people tend to misuse their power. Terrorism and terrorists when becoming the greatest threats to world peace, in no way, a government should entertain or encourage terrorism...! I can sense the intensity of your moral indignation over such acts that can become a serious affront to humanity. Well articulated. A 10

From a prime minister whose motto is: Sunny days ahead! And he has the audacity to defend himself with The Charter of Rights? What about the rights of the victims? What about the rights of Canada's Indigenous? What about the rights of those being illegally held in detention centers? Valsa, I think that you've just inspired me to write a couple more poems. Thanks for all your support! !

Richard, this is very moving and thought provoking. I can't really identify what it stirs (for me) , but it reminds me of a reaction that some of my American friends had to judicial decisions. This is going back some 20 years at the very least.....People were were upset about the Miranda rights. There was a sense of betrayal, betrayal by the judicial system. There were allegations and suggestions that the justice system was having to free criminals on mere technicalities. What you have me thinking about is- -where is the outrage today? A great work, Richard.

M.J., The Toronto Sun (not a favourite of mine) posted on the front page, a photo of a WWII veteran. His face had been enlarged to fully expose his outrage. On the same picture, in the top right hand corner, a small photo of Khadr. Guess what was the expression on his face? A smirk! The juxtaposition of the two had stirred such great emotion that I was ready to blow up. I couldn't think of a more constructive way to do that than to write this poem. Thank you for your very valuable feedback. As always, I so very much appreciate the insights and positivity! ! !
