Nick Armbrister Jimmy Boom Semtex Poet Verse

Blockade Lift

Blockade Lift
They wanted the grain
Putin's ships stood in the way
And needed sinking immediately
They lifted the Russian naval blockade

Of Ukrainian ports with NATO warships
So the world wouldn't starve
Millions of tons of grain and wheat
This was the way forward
But Putin had other ideas

He was losing on land 
And in the sky so badly
Ukraine was fighting for freedom
Putin hated NATO and the West
He launched his nuclear toys

Hitting the NATO ships and carriers
With torpedoes missiles rockets and more
All nuclear winning this battle
But losing everything when NATO
Hit Russian bases with their nukes

Thus setting in turn Armageddon
Dooming us all to varied deaths
It was a matter of fact
This would end bad 

In so many ways
Nobody won World War 3
Nobody ate the freed grain
We were all dead
