Iron Curtain
Winston Churchill- the Tailor
chose material, designed fashion
Franklin D Roosevelt- the Weaver
later wove success with Marshall magic
Joseph Stalin- the Color Master
painted the Curtain with blood of soldiers
Adolf Hitler- the Spirit
provided living fear among architects
Victims- the haunting ghosts
precaution never to resurrect from the dead
The world- the watchman
soon fell asleep allowing war without war
So it happened in aftermath
with organic fabrics exhausted, metals served
with professional clothiers on imaginary strike
willing blacksmiths were readily available
Iron Curtain was built in haste
to erect durable peace, security outside the heart
