Notes About The Poem

World War 3

The territorial aspirations of the dictators
change in the course of aggressive adventure,
the geopolitical scenario through regional conflicts,
with the dreadful potential of global escalation.

Though the cold war between the super-powers
has ended with the demolition of a wall,
the global hot spots of persistent conflicts, 
flared by the supremacy pursuit still persist.

As predicted by Nostradamus, these spots,
the clashing arena now of limited proxy war,
might someday thrust the world into World War 3,
with mass destruction weapons ending the civilization.

The humanity will face unprecedented devastation
at the aftermath of WW3, the nuclear apocalypse.
In the midst of the nuclear winter then,
there won’t be any winner in another ice age.
