There’s much that I could write about
Our dear old world’s a mess – no doubt;
F16 fighters for Ukraine?
As Zelensky visits us* again …
Then talk of hostages held fast
As history long shadows cast,
Uncertainties in distant places
Despair etched deep on many faces…
I make no claim, denounce no plot
A politician I am not;
Observing - quietly gripped with fear -
Where do we go forth – from here?
Revenge, prepare, attack, deploy
More sweet innocents destroy …
A word - three letters - comes to mind -
To say it though, too stark, unkind …
