Comment from Merily

Excellent

I'm not going to pretend I am anything near experienced in poetry critique, it's a learning curve for me. However, I will make comment on your topic.

I think you are brave, moral, and unafraid to touch on a topic that needs touching on. I have never felt so ashamed as I do as a citizen of a so called developed nation. The only thing that is developed is a sense of utter cruelty.
This is a country (UK) that empties supermarket shelves of everything going for no reason other than a selfish desire. Yet people feel they can cast judgement on others with nothing.

Congratulations on speaking from the heart. It is in short supply these days.

Thank you so much for your support, Merily. The topic is far more important than my doggerel. Best wishes.

Excellent

I am unsure how many people will understand this poem on this site with it having a concentration of US members. I know you are talking about the shameless attempts of the Tories to win votes by sending refugees to Rwanda however and it works well as a protest poem. Good luck.
