Screaming into the Void – v3 #Sumy #KryvyiRih #Ukraine

Screaming into the void, for justice,
for a spine within our leaders,
for a brave soul to rise against terror,
to command there to be a change,
resolve to meet this moment,
this trial, this struggle against evil,
that the West would unite,
because it is almost too late…
 
A waking nightmare, unending,
too close to the border, to terror,
our world is spinning out of control,
driven by his bloodlust, his power,
his desire for conquest, for empire,
by willing minions, weak vassals,
men willing to be fodder, expendable,
for their master’s cruel bidding…
 
Another day, another massacre,
the drip-drip of our silence,
Holy Palm Sunday in Sumy,
Russian genocide, a double-tap,
munitions seeking to maim, to murder,
to erase these innocent people,
Russia shouting, “Crucify Them”,
to kill the innocent sheep…
 
Not guilty of any crime, the children,
lambs brought to slaughter, innocents,
sitting in their pews, entering worship,
one of the holiest days bloodied,
by the hate of the false-Christian,
anti-Christs sitting in the Kremlin,
the Dead Souls of these people,
a cruel, brutal feudal nation-state…
 
Screaming into the void, repeating,
three years not yet enough,
the West must rise up, finally,
we must defend these brave people,
the strong people of Ukraine…
May this be finally the moment,
when the world stands with them, united,
together defeating our common enemy,
Putin, the nation-state of Russia…
