Analysis of 31st Day of War in Ukraine
Enchained by his own
creation in Ukraine
Zilensky now counts
his wounds and sees
a spectacle of ravage
before extinction
Joe Biden couldn't help
the avalanche of night
now wrapped in rubble
none left to shed tears
keep memories of the sun
now steeped in darkness

About this poem
The images of War in Ukraine on TV news channels have been extremely disturbing. We watch a lovely country reduced to rubble. As a poet I think the Ukrainean President should have shown statesmanship and saved his country.
