Blame the Russians

Blame Russia A thought flew and past I saw a shadow in the afternoon sun it was a quick devilish thing I tried to hold on to it. But I saw a transparent ocean shifting shingles on the beach of Greenland and lazy seals waiting to be shot. While I missed the news about flooding In Georgia and the flood at the zoo freed animals and there were great fear of wild animals roaming the countryside. Tigers, lions and hyenas ran for their escaped a moment of freedom not to be missed to be looked at, what they saw as food. Perhaps the lion could find the Savannah and the tiger find its way back to India so the hyena could have a laugh. It was not to be, men with guns comb the countryside and if the animals they encounter look foreign a trigger is pulled. Yet, I could not remember what the thought was other than the news blames the Russians which reminds of the Nazi regime which also blamed the Russians too and lost, we the people are victims of relentless propaganda and the people who want a war will have their day and burn in a nuclear hell.
