Threats of a Bully

It's not going my way and I don't have the tact To enter repairing negotiations for that I lack So to get my way I'll invade a near neighbour To satisfy my ego whilst watching wars labour But now it appears it's not going as I thought Their resiliance strong, street fighting sheer To satisfy my ego whilst watching wars labour I'll now threaten the world, deterrant Nuclear! <*>

James this is great love it. You have him pegged for what he is, a coward and ruthless dictator. Putin will someday have to answer to God. Thanks for posting my friend.

He's facing almost universal disapproval, even among his oligarchs. Tyrants always rant when they are threatened. Your poem is well-written and well-taken, James.
