A Little Adoration

A little adoration
 for the man who would subjugate a nation
holding up his hands
 paying any price to take the land,
it must be more valuable than worldly strife
 killing women, children depriving them of life
and the news calls others to their knees
 as he threatens nuclear fees
while watchers stretch out their hands
 a brave nation defies his demands,
so much irony for these united nations
 two or three hold back their participation,
Those who object hope for their own adoration
 in a future where freedom is merely an aberration.
 


A tribute to Putin's War,
pray it never darkens your door.
