Heroic II
Trying to guide yourself
Into an emotional closure
Even the rain gave up
Trying that night
When the first bomb landed
Masking all of your problems into
dust.
Photos
The memorials showed the
photos of each soldier killed
Cut down by enemy fire be
it bullets or rockets
Two hundred dead in Poltava
Five hundred and fifty from
Dnipro
Adding to the ten thousand plus
dead
Made up of military and
civilian lives
Each one forever a life
taken
Each a unique story
A unique death
Big brother Russia turned
on Ukraine
Putin took his time
plotting and planning
His choice was an almost
easy kill…
…or was it?
