Speak poet word

See the people in the moody scenes
Their neighbours jostling with tears
Ukrainian streets Yemeni streets
Broken like bread under a heavy knife
A clean sparkling blade shining like
The teeth of a great white shark
Sharks in suits and khaki, dressed
To kill anyone who thinks or speaks
Out against the will of power
The people live in the street
The sharks live in the nations of power
