There's a rich history of poetry serving as social commentary, intended to inspire calls to action.
Insanity
By the divines, I am denied…my only true sanity that once lived inside. Only know, does insanity arise? Impossibility sends there avenges, as I fall into the abyss of the unknown trenches. The lake below screams and bellows, as its inhabitants come for the bait. I dangle and swing, from the enemies’ chain as the corrupted souls fight for their claim. The noises from under torment my mind, so their mistress sings a silent rhyme. The corrupted souls seem to quiet…but then their mistress sings again. The souls laugh their evil laugh, as they approach the bait under their mistress’ wrath.
