From a Thug To a Bloated Slug

Hey Tom Cunningham, you could help bring Putin down,
Plastic surgery has made him into a legendary clown,
Ridicule him whilst highlighting his inhumanity,
Mock him but telling of his insanity,
Advise him his plastic surgeon should give him a frown

We all wonder what he is up to ! Is he going to prolong this mayhem to eternity ? Every century witnesses the birth of some megalomaniacs! Putin is one such man. It is Tom who often exposes this thug's villainy in all its starkness. Great limerick Jenny.

He appears to be one of this world's inhumane creatures. Hopefully Ukraine will be able to have some stability and peace soon. You characterized him so well.

Scary man, for sure. Can you even imagine what his soul, if he has one, could look like? Great job Jennifer!

We're watching this situation escalate slowly, and wondering how this will all end. Hopefully, it will end with peace and soon.

Hi Duke, My hopes are with you Duke, but after writing my poem about Zeus and Pandora, i have doubts about Putin and hope, as hope was the last curse left in Pandora's box although Pandora is just a Greek myth. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Putin is a real monster, worthy of this title, and he is quite cunning; let's pray he is removed from power very soon. Enjoyed reading this Jennifer.

Enjoyed this Limerick in Proxenos style, Jenny! Fortunately, there are things (such as a person's character and actions) which plastic surgery can never hide. Incidentally, today the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Putin. ~ Warm regards & Hugs, my friend // paul
