Premonition

Most times I look at life through a positive lens, yet every now and again,
   evil emerges where I sense its dark forces impose their oppressive 
   demands in the midst of calm...
  

               ***I FIRMLY STAND BESIDE THE UKRAINIAN PEOPLE!***







                                                Premonition


                        Yesterday, the future gave humanity the key

                        Today, inequities threaten the human destiny

                        Tomorrow, the past foresaw inhumane agony

Well written, Anselmo! I stand with the Ukraine! God bless them and keep them. My great-grandparents were Ukrainian.

Thank you, Kim, for expressing your true feelings toward the Ukrainian people. I too have friends from there who I hope are safe, praying that this war will end soon...ab

A very powerful write in your usual classical style, Anselmo. The moment we feel things are bright, everything becomes topsy turvy, presenting nothing less than intense agony....for tomorrow to pass through....

Oh, I so agree with you, Anselmo. And the man behind this Ukrainian attack is certainly evil. I am hoping his own people will turn on him, because I don't think they wanted this war. After all, the sanctions will be hard on them, too.

This dictator is a sociopath and a criminal in my eyes. Like you, I hope that the sanctions and other means to mess him up will work and that the other non-Nato countries close to the Russian border will hasten to become members. Thanks for your thoughts Milt...ab
