Spring Flowers Bloom Most Men Want Love Peace Lives Poem by Terence George Craddock

Spring Flowers Bloom Most Men Want Love Peace Lives

Rating: 5.0


dark storm clouds have death gathered
over Europe again a full scale war rages
in Ukraine again western media claim
Russia thought it would conquer Ukraine
in a few days a week already the war
has raged for over a year with promised
Ukraine Spring counter offensive looming
which means more escalation in this crisis
more injuries death blood shed looming

it is hard to believe the old lie is being
media told again an implied vile chanting
about how sweet honourable it is to die
for one's country in a glorious defense
Ukraine men marching to glorious death
yes the action is brave heroic admirable

strange though how the western media
refuses to show the true cost face of war
with images of horrific injuries deaths
pimping war western media never shows
armless legless blind death battle scared
sick wounded soldiers in themed glorious
defense mothers fathers weeping for sons
who will sing an 'Anthem for Doomed Youth'
what dire torture awaits men refusing to fight

not a word of Ukraine men refusing to fight policy
deserters shot dead for cowardice in front line policy
few doubt Putin has a shoot dead deserters policy

truth millions of men do not want to be conscripted
forced to enlist fight in wars by their own country
billions globally want to live in peace not fight wars
who really hypes this war as a glorious noble theme
instead of seeking peace resolution at every chance
spring flowers bloom most men want love peace lives

I believe Russia has no idea what yo do next, they are at stalemate. I also believe the could be another Russian revolution like 1917.

A western calculation is Russia will not defend Belarus. Russia views Poland as a "hostile" state 'engulfed in Russophobic hysteria.' A Russian plan to deploy tactical nukes in Belarus was moved forward on May 25th. The situation in Ukraine is escalating fast, it is cause for serious worry.

p2 claim Poland and Ukraine will support a Belarus uprising. Russia will support Belarus against an uprising. The stalement might be about to cross borders into Belarus and then?

p1 Ukraine has already received more missiles tanks aircraft than needed to launch a spring counter attack. If Ukraine succeeds, an armed revolution against Alexander Lukashenko in Belarus, is part of the Ukraine expectations. Sources
