IN THEY ROLL

 

In they roll

An hour diatribe by the dictator.

The “Press” looks on approvingly.

In 1994 Bill Clinton and Great Britain

Took the nukes out of Ukraine

Sent them to Russia

For a piece of paper

Strategically not a “treaty”

Under the “interpretation” used at the time

            Ever since they have been under threat

            Invasion with troops is just a next step.

            A thousand years ago

            Vikings settled and Kievrus

            Was the first “Russian” territory.

            Putin harks back to that

            While he waited for a bad U.S. President

            From whom he can extract

            Under threat

            Whatever concession he can get

            And die in 20 years

            A “Russian Hero” uniting Russia

In comes Winken, Blinken and Nod

She smirks and winks

Blinken blathers

Biden nods off

A pickle for 3 more years

In the wings, Pelosi

Pointing crooked claws

At imaginary adversaries

She invents to fit her narrative

            Caving as tech buries thought

            Under an avalanche of stock options

            Usurping our attention and focus with divisions                220222.1
