Red Army Choir

 

This Poem was taken off the blog, slightly adjusted, and is now back on again. Sadly President Putin's special military operation is still ongoing.

Red Army Choir

This is not a war

Rumbled a tank as it crushed a car

With dad inside.

 

This is not a war

Howled the missiles as they homed in

On a maternity ward.

 

This is not a war

Whistled the torturer

As he inserted his probe.

 

This is not a war

Chanted the bullets as they hunted

Children through a playground.

 

This is not a war

Bellowed the bombs as they blasted

A theatre with a full house.

 

Blood oozed red under rubble.

The audience did not applaud.
