Ukraine

I want to write about Ukraine but what can I say?
I sit at home, while they are being preyed upon.
In school they taught me about the Holocaust and WW2:
They said,
โ€œAnd the world was silentโ€
and none of us could comprehend,
How the world stands by and watches
while so many people are being slayed.
Now itโ€™s the same,
The world stands still.
No actual goodwill.
People keep getting killed.
Seizing Yachts doesnโ€™t help those on the ground.
Boom boom boom boom, and no one makes a sound.
What can I say besides
โ€œIโ€™m sorry for your pain,
You are heroes and
I would have done the same.
Go ahead and protect your home.
Globalization is but a fake idea,
As you can see, You are all alone.
A lot of power can come from knowing that,
Go and make your enemies say Blyatโ€™.โ€
My roots are from both Russia and Ukraine,
I guess I have to say โ€œGoddamn.โ€
I wish the world was more humane,
Because we are all the same.

    I feel so sad about Ukrain and I don’t know when it will stop. There’s nothing that can reverse the loss on ukraine, but I want it to stop.

    I have to agree with you. I, too, feel ashamed that the whole world – especially, the UN and the United States – make speeches and express their sympathy while actually doing nothing.

    1. Tut Yashar Avatar

      Yes this is so sad and I agree, shameful. There are so many things to say about this, but beyond all itโ€™s just sad.

    I’m of Ukrainian descent, and I don’t understand this war. It seems like utter madness.

    1. Tut Yashar Avatar

      Itโ€™s terrible. Itโ€™s all about the economy and control just like everything else bad that happens. Bad people doing bad things
