Ukraine 2023
by Richard Randolph

I want to live in a world in which people won't tolerate
the murdering of innocent women and children,
where they'll insist it stop immediately,
without compromise, whatever the costs,
and where the leaders of the free world won't turn a blind eye
because Russia has oil or they're afraid of nuclear war,
but act on principle, with the courage of their convictions.
And I want to believe in an American public willing to stand for what is right,

Bajo El Puente Del Río, Texas, USA
by Hébert Logerie

Bajo el puente Del Río están parados, atascados, estacionados
