General Frost, General Winter – v3 #poetry #Ukraine #Russia #Winter #drones #power #heat #gasoline #GeneralFrost #GeneralWinter

Генерал Мороз, Генерал Зима
 
He is no longer a brother, an ally,
He has become an adversary,
the Bear will soon face destruction
in the daunting desert of cold…
 
General Frost, General Winter,
has become their enemy,
the source of their sorrow,
as the lights flicker out,
freezing in the dark…
 
Not like in history, wars of the past,
when Winter was their friend,
the trap of earlier times
when the enemy was beaten by cold…
 
Now, in this moment,
against asymmetrical war,
the vastness of Russia,
the steppes, the cold of Siberia,
General Frost will bring their doom…
 
Every queue for gasoline, for diesel,
Every train fuel that is destroyed,
shattering their sense of security
the barrenness of the cold…
 
Every refinery set ablaze, on fire,
new missile attacks on thermal power
the darkness when the electricity stops,
sets the stage for sorrow, General Frost,
for their quickening death…

General Frost, General Winter – v3

The title is about the Russian winter and its role in
the Great Northern War, the Napoleonic War, and WWII,
and how it may be very different in the Ukraine War,
where Ukraine is using asymmetrical warfare to attack
oil and gas infrastructure rather than invading,
