Stunning, what you can do with just twenty-five syllables! And the photo you chose to accompany this piece is spot on. Great work, and I wish you all the success you so richly deserve.

This war has got the undivided attention of millions (probably Billions) of people throughout the world. There has never been a time in history where the fate of the world was in the hands of one man. God, if you are paying attention, we could use you right now.

Thanks for adding your voice to the Russia conversation. Even the previously pro-Russian, Russian speakers in Ukraine have had their cities wreaked and are furious at the devastation of their country by Putin. I was curious about your picture, as it does not appear to show war devastation -- could you explain the context?

Thanks for the read!

    My intention is to put a face on this topic not statistics. Too often we loose the harsh reality that bombs don?t stop at destroying buildings, hospital s and bridges, they destroy humanity?s Hopes and dreams.

    Yeah I get that, and the color of the picture delivers that tenor. I was just confused on the context of the picture -- if it was from Ukraine, and from the war, and how it related. Although not necessary (it is your piece after all) anything you could add explaining the pic in the author notes would be great!

The Ukrainian people are such a wonderful race of people. I can't beleive that they are being targeted in this way by a total monster. A very hard hitting poem and wonderful artwork. Jen

I can't really comment on the subject matter, being across the world from this action. Especially when the Media Magician are manipulating and manufacturing fear into the masses. Keep Writing

An excellent poem and commentary message for what is going on in the world today. It is a good entry for this contest, I hope it does well. If the pen is indeed mightier than the sword, then we need a whole lot more pens working! Good job!

I enjoyed your poem. You did a nice job with the prompt. This should do well in the contest. You write about the human condition that the world is witnessing in utter disbelief.

The poet here is echoing the sentiments of most of the world who hope the Ukrainians can reject the Russians. I am impressed you could convey your message in only 25 syllables and employ three good rhymes. Rod
