Poem III - To Ukraine - Written midway through April 2022

 Poem III - To Ukraine -

What else should be said, 

some fifty dreadful days in? (this war in Europe)

Putin, you scum of all earths?


When we watch movies of Hitler, you

have finally brought to light how truly

awful, absolutely, unequivocally bad,

terrible, and hideous was the vaunted Joseph Stalin?

Bravo, my genius commander!


Russia: you repeat the banal


Ivan was only partly terrible, a stain

in human history, compared to your decrepit, blood-stained

filthy and pusillaminous hands and heart.


Your soul is darkened by Satan himself,

Father of lies, and you his chosen heir!


Ukraine will be your epitaph, tavareesh (comrade);

Millions will spit upon your tomb

with mucous and bile.


Your own parents believe in demons now.


UKRAINE will be your final thought.

"Whoops -- I have destroyed it all."

UKRAINE WILL REMAIN.


How do you say gross error in Russian?

Vlad- ee P.

  1. I had in mind more pro-Ukraine thoughts in this time of incredibly stressful and sad times, but it came out more anti Vladimir.

    Not a great report on Russia, either.
