The War Rages On

The War Rages On



The war in Ukraine
It rages on
More refugees,
More orphans,
Mothers with children
Trying to settle
In Poland,
The war in Ukraine
It rages on
The city of Mariupol
Nearly destroyed
Russian tanks
And missiles
Deployed everywhere
Hypersonic missiles
Attacking Arms Depot,
Apartment buildings,
Schools, even churches
Being attacked by
The Russians every day,
Innocent children
Have died,
The war in Ukraine
It rages on,
Poland taking in the refugees,
And the supplies,
NATO worried about 
what Putin
might do next,
President Biden issuing more
Sanctions against Russia,
Poland worried
Russia may attack,
The war in Ukraine,
It rages on,
When will it end?
Only God knows
And Nostradamus
Who predicted
A Third World War
In the 2020’s-2030’s,
He’s never been wrong,
The war in Ukraine
It rages on.

But it is not limited to the war zone, e.g., South Korea is upset because Biden wants them to reduce sales of microchips and batteries to China (their primary trading partner), as punishment for China supporting Russia, and South Koreans are loath to get involved . . . . . .
