the threat within

his fate, his terror,
within the walls of the Kremlin,
the tipping point coming,
does he hear their footsteps…
 
soon, very soon,
he may feel the dagger,
the burn of the poison,
wicking his life…
 
his days are numbered,
holding stolen power,
his people will rise up,
to reclaim their lang…
 
the momentum is rising,
within the walls of the Kremlin,
his gilded dungeon, his office,
will become his tomb…

The stain of innocent blood – v5
https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2024/09/the-stain-of-innocent-blood-v5.html
This poem is about the character Pontius Pilate in the novel, Master and Margarita,
by Mikhail Bulgakov, where Pilate is spending eternity, not in heaven or hell,
but trying to wash the innocent blood Jesus Christ from his hands.
This poem is transferring that same nightmarish judgment on Vladimir Putin
for the innocent blood of the people of Ukraine...
originally drafted April 1, 2022, 38 days into the full-scale invasion

“One of the main russian propagandists Solovyev suggests
Putin's resignation, blaming the russian leadership for failures at the frontline.”

Each human life is important – v2
https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2024/09/each-human-life-is-important-v2.html
Refuting the clear message of Putin’s war of aggression that,
“Human life is unimportant”
And the quote of Vladimir Kara-Murza in the decision to release
Russian murderer so that those held unjustly would be free,
That each human life is important…
And my poem, “Human life is all that matters – v2”
