Holodomor

With the people, he was dissatisfied,   For they won’t let go of their lands, His idea for the farms to collectivize,
Men would not accept his aim.

To break’em all down, did he use clout,
And asked his men to be brute, “Snatch their bread, let them wander about,
Deprive them of their food.”

Destroyed their crops, crushed their grains,
He manufactured a deadly famine,         Watched them poor kids starve to death,
Mothers did naught but cry.

On the land prevailed such cruel man, With a mind so crude,
Compelled people to succumb to death,
Or accede to his rule.

Disgrace to the existence of human kind,
Does put whole history to shame,
An episode of remorselessness, Witnessed by the land of Ukraine.
