Hard
Fought
Fidel,
Against the
Right-wing Infidels
And their Christian sons and heirs,
For a choice on the direction of the world’s affairs.
Long-stood has this fierce bastard, shaking farmer’s fists at the greatest tyrannies of time.
So now to be expected that those arms stay raised,
His bright face that more unfazed;
The proud Cuban heart
Mocking death
With each
New
Breath.

That's a cracker barboy. Is it one of those Fibonacci poem thingies?

Thanks for the nice comments, it was interesting to try out the Fib. I had to write this quickly as I got confused about the format in the competition and wrote a whole other poem but the sequencing made it easier bizarrely. I'm getting started on some performance pieces soon and I think it will be really useful to use the format. Anyway, cheers. :)
