War 4 Vanity Sake

Blink at your peril just incase it passes
you bye

Putin is on the war path to Ukraine

As if you miss it , it won't be back until 
Haley's comet ride's our darkened night
sky again

Big Ben's Bell's hand strikes the
bewitching hour of 10 as a 
Cuckoo flew traverse over the 
luna full moon

Highlighting the Luftwaffe over
Yee Old London Town dropping 
a blitzkrieg of bomb's from the sky

Beneath a total eclipse of the sun
so confused and utterly perplexed

It knows whether not to it should
wink , smile , cry or avert its Ray's

And worst of all contemplate whether
or not come wake of dawn should he 
in fact

Come up and shine it's warmth
and light on that which is left and
doth still remain

Whence mornings mushroom smog
slowly clears and unfounded fear's 
appear real

Sting forth dry burning tears from cotton 
mouth's with jaw's dropped

And as no living flora is now left behind
a substitute then has to be sought

In order to whittle funeral wreath's and
so to new coronation crown's out of
