War once more

 

Kyiv         March 2022.


The tanks roll in, as we knew they would.

But this is not like in Hollywood.

People hide, as bombs fall from the skies.

Do the bombers care, about who dies?


The troops move in, as we watch the vids.

Ambushed by AK-47 wielding kids.

While buildings burn, politicians talk.

As the nation bleeds, refugees walk.


This is it boys, this is war. This is what we've been waiting for.

Count the cost in men and machines. Violence written in our genes.


For now the fighting is a world away.

Our lives untroubled b the price they pay.

The timid and tender will cry; War no more!

But isn't peace worth fighting for?


What do you think will happen next, in this story?

The aggressor stops, satisfied with gains and glory?

Im afraid this is it, the time is here.

Dust off your rifle, put down your beer.

For Space X

 

Blast Off     March 08 2022


Do you want to see my rocket ship?

Its very large, from base to tip.

And when you climb aboard,

you will never again be board.

When you ride my rocket ship.


We can blast off to the moon,

roaring engines, get us high, real soon.

You can feel the thrust under your seat,

you can even smell the chemical heat.

When you ride my rocket ship.
