Notes About The Poem

Toilet Humour

Russians are clumsy, a fact that's well known 
Mistook a lone beach for the battle zone
Odessa was out of reach
So hit a loo on the beach
I hope there was no one sat on the throne... 


Written on 22 May 2022



The bungling Russian navy fired a $5 million dollar misslle at Odessa claiming to hit a military target, it hit a target of high value alright , a toilet on a deserted beach.

Valsa George May 23, 2022 at 9:42 PM This is fantastic, Tom ! A costly missile wasted on an Ukrainian loo - an effort as herculean as an ant raping an elephant :) Tom Cunningham May 24, 2022 at 12:23 AM Thank you Valsa, love your comment, so true. They don't care what they hit. Tom

David Kavanagh May 22, 2022 at 1:20 PM I’m sure Tom, the proverbial poop is hitting the fan every day of the week in the Kremlin, and them Ruskies missile operators are pooping bricks after this one went AWOL, nice one!

Vijay Pandit May 22, 2022 at 12:16 PM I remember they claimed hitting military target. But, didn't know where they really hit. Keep hitting them, Tom. They have earned all the ridicule. Tom Cunningham May 22, 2022 at 12:22 PM Thank you very much Vijay, you couldn't make it up. Not only is he trying to destroy Ukraine but he's destroying his own country too. Tom
