This poem is sooo so powerful:)
Perfectly written

I found the poem powerful, and even though death is not supposed to make us happy, there are a few that kind do. But it's because they weren't good people so I understand the feeling that comes from this poem. It's really good, and I love the word emancipated, finally free from that bad person. Great ending.

Wow what can i say.. I loved it

The news of your death has brought
smiles to many faces
Chants of joy fill the night sky
as word spreads around

^
The news of his death brought smiles to people's faces, This line tells the readers that he wasn't loved and not many people liked him. This first stanza is really powerful, knowing that people are happy of the death because of his greed and ignorance.

No more will you kill in vain,
no more will mothers cry for
losing their children all because
of your ignorance and greed

^
I felt this stanza was really good
now that his dead, mothers will no longer cry from losing there innocent child from his greed.
Such a short powerful meaningful stanza that said a lot

Remember their cries, their screams
Calling out your name for mercy
but all you did was look the other way
as your foot soldiers pulled the trigger

^^
I can picture this playing in my mind. The president not taking actions,sitting back while ppl scream for mercy for his help but he just ignored and sat back as soldiers pulled the trigger.
This stanza had powerful meaning to it, it brought out how ignorant the president was like. You showed how he didn't care and he just let it continue happening

This poem was perfect I loved it
Really powerful in how you wrote this(:

5/5

Paul you know how I feel about this, I am sorry for the man's family and I truly hope the new President will be better for your country and its people.

The news of your death has brought
smiles to many faces

^The opening to your poem sets the stage for the reader showing the evilness and cruelty of a person's death that has brought smile to many faces.

No more will you kill in vain,
no more will mothers cry for
losing their children all because
of your ignorance and greed

^It is heart wrenching to see and hear the death of any child but to know that in a nation children are killed sue to one man's greed..a very sad stanza.

Remember their cries, their screams
Calling out your name for mercy
but all you did was look the other way
as your foot soldiers pulled the trigger

^This creates such a painful scene in my mind. To know that this type of merciless killing was still going on!

You had blood on your hands,
calling us fools in your speeches, saying
we were hens and you were the cock
to do with us what you pleased

^A terrible thing to stand by and see and go through and to know that nothing could be done to stop this!

Where are you now all mighty one?
lying there lifeless and hopeless
Did you think you would cheat death?
Who were you to decide the fate of others?

^You reap what you sow..this saying came to my mind after I read this. Nobody can escape death and nobody can escape the sin they committed!

They told us to mourn,
saying we lost a great leader, a visionary
No more shall we be fooled,
we have been emancipated

^A triumph for the nation and there is no need to mourn for a monster. I hope that relief comes to your nation with the next leader who will be good.
