VOLODYMYR ZELENSKYY

The world watches helplessly as your world falls apart
Hands tied
Power locked
Eyes awed
As lives on your land are being poured into the abyss of death
No onlooking mind will forget this

II
Whatever the Kremlin has as justification
Humanity can never mark it correct
As he cowardly attacks a weaker you
…in the full glare of Karma
Some of your people’s beds shiver in empty rooms
As their owners flee or hide in bunkers and Metro Stations
Some of your people have turned live ducks
Blasted in an unprovoked maniac crimes
Infrastructure stand scared
Being deformed by bombs
Your future leaders look scared
Many of whom unaware of the problem at hand
Some are missing their fathers and brothers at the frontline
And might never see them again
It is such an unfortunate fate

III
But you’ve shown resistance
And lived by your resolve
You’ve stood your ground
And faced your bully squarely
Fall or rise
…you’ve made your mark
Ousted or remain
…you’ve lived your truth
In life or death
…you personify BRAVERY
Many would’ve fled to save themselves
But you stand and spit in the face of death
Knowing you’re no match for its monster
And for that the world hails you!
Oh for that the world will remember you!
Yes for that the world will celebrate you!
History has documented you in the book of heroes
Awed by your personality
Thankful for your existence
Glad for your contribution to the freedom struggle in your jurisdiction
Your legacy will outlive your body
…and that of your bully
In this tragedy which Moscow orchestrates
Russia will forever regret this
In the aftermath of it all

KYIV
From Crimea to Donbas
A sole side antagonostic war boards a bus
From Moscow, hoping to cower Zylensky to surrender
All that the world will remember
Is the G7 barking like dogs at Russia without movement to help

II
Sanctions which will merely bruise the backs of Russia
Protections that are certainly not the target of Russia
Mask cries from Ukraine for peace which now ceases
On an innocent lands so caught in hateful freezes

III
Could this be the third world war?
Could this make the world go sore?
Will this reverse a world this far gone?
Will this see other takeovers being born?
Certainly the answers are in the nods of silence

IV
Barrels of fuel shoot up
Many a gun go up
Many a man will die
Many a ban will cry
But Putin will have his way
Past this accursed day
Is Germany regretting his partnership?

V
The grasses will suffer
As this will make them many a pauper
The masses will hurt
As this will make them viewers who flirt
Nations will worry
As many an innocent die in a state of sorry
All to boost of Putin’s glory
In a century as advanced as this 21st
