The fevered dreams of the madman
the tsar in the bunker
believing in his own propaganda
The strength of his Russia...
 
The insanity of these years
relentless attacks of the Madman
releasing the dogs of war,
The crucible of terror...
 
Ancient lines of kinship
sovereignty denied, a lie,
launching chaos, Armageddon,
A lunatic on the march...
 
So much destruction, terror,
So many innocent lives taken
So many children were stolen,
For his imperial lust...
 
He will not stop, ever,
until he stopped, forever,
the footsteps of an assassin,
will bring about his end...
 
The insanity of these years,
a nation in the cauldron
war on the land of Europe,
The Madman on the loose...

Signs of the End Times
https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2022/02/signs-of-end-times.html
"Signs of the End Times" was trying to make sense of what was happening,
with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia on February 24, 2022,
but not just the full-scale invasion, and it is in my Published poems folder on
my desktop, but it truly was in real-time, me trying to understand how
the full-scale invasion could be happening.
