I have skin in the game,
a dog in this fight,
nothing like neutral
in this war, this terror,
picking one side…
black soil, the people,
a flag of blue and yellow,
of the wheat and the sky,
even though I bleed our colors,
of red, white, and blue…
for their suffering facing terror,
such terrible cost, war crimes,
so many killed, lives shattered,
so much lost, but not forgotten,
so much to restore, to be rebuilt…
the grueling face of war, terror,
inch by inch, and mile by mile,
giving ground to save lives,
until that day comes, suddenly,
when the tipping point is breached…
I have skin in the game,
I believe in freedom for them,
just as Taras believed,
crying for his people,
and his Beloved, Ukraina…
