KHARKIV & BORODYANKA HITS... (RUSSIAN AGGRESSION IN UKRAINE): MY NEW POEM FOR UKRAINE...

 Kharkiv & Borodyanka Hits…

A dropped quill

Or a used, discarded syringe.


A poisoned arrowhead,

In flames and weeping sorrow,

Via a dictator’s misguided will…


It collapsed like a film-set,

A flimsy garden fence

Or fabricated CGI imagery.


A crumbling dread,

A crumbling wall

Or a crumbling effect of savagery


Upon a world geared to implode:

An enemy target with no regret

Via a dictator’s misguided sense…
