Suppose Russian rule reaches the Atlantic
Or, Westblock is likewise fiercely expansive
Have you thought, how you will live?
Rule has a function & a semantic
Russian or Western Rule
A Friday Thought
Our human world is changing thoroughly
Less babies born, shrinking populaton,
Leading to less comfort & economic action
May also Russia return to the community
As a cooperative nation
Russia & the EU
I wonder if Putin can see
The EU isn’t a strong economy
Is it the reason why he took his chance
To make a violent advance
Ruble
As unhappy as I am about the war
Loss of life & land to Russia
There’s perhaps one valid issue for Russia
It won’t accept foreign currency anymore
Return of Winter
Not only the cold, the endless rain
Also the bad news of people being slain
Is a return of darkness in Europe
A country is in the grip of a misanthrope
Swift
There are no swift solutions
To the conflict and destructions
Between Russia and Ukraine
We can expect a lot more pain
Slice Of Compassion
Ukraine’s president talks today;
Mentions the very young Russian soldiers
Ill trained, scared, peowns in others’ play
Bodies deleted, kept from parents’ tears
Perhaps, compassion on a cruel day
First Things First
I don’t hate anybody
Everybody deserves their say & input
Yet, now, the Russians need go home quickly
Ukraine needs help to stay put
Don’t Applaud Too Early
Russia didn’t walz over Ukraine yet
Hopefully, this won’t happen ever
Zelenskyi is a remarkable leader,
Uniting the Russian & Ukrainian speaker
In his nation — it may be winning asset
Hopefully, Russia made a short lived bet
What To Hope For?
That escalating warfare
Is as brief as possible
That violence is as little as possible
That we all learn lessons about what’s fair
Power Struggle
In how far has the West
Itself ro blame for its struggle with Russia
I ask myself what had been best,
Trying not to imitate words of the media
Palindrome Day
Mystical or just ordinary
News today is stormy
Russia invades Donbas; there’s a kidnapping
In our capital’s Apple Store, now happening
Will They Continue?
Will there be war, soon
Or will they renounce the folly
Our world will be lit by Sun & Moon
But, again, blood will flow abundantly

Fandango’s One World Challenge: Renounce
Am I, Are You Scared?
It looks like there will be, again,
War in Europe
I hope this opera is only soap
In bloodshed is no gain
Russian Winter
France & Germany destroyed themselves
In Russia’s Winter — USA, Britain,
And other foolish nations — what gain
You think you get, suffering with wolves
Czechoslowakia was not Ukraine
Ukraine, Donbass, Russia need a platform
To work out a satisfactory map & form
Without looking at Russia in disdain
