Putin Free

Putin started shootin’ ‘cross the border in Ukraine.
Now he’s talkin’ nukes and it’s quite clear he’s gone insane.
He went in to ‘kill nazis,’ though their leader is a jew.
The people took up arms and said, “No, this you cannot do.”
He’s strafing, bombing, tanks amok, but Ukraine won’t concede.
We’ve only sanctions on our side to pacify his greed.
An oligarch gone rogue has not been seen since Hitler’s days
(unless you count the orange demon’s presidential phase).
After four days fighting, Russia claimed Chernobyl’s site.
Only disadvantage: now their soldiers glow at night.
Signs this war is spreading, lapping into Belarus,
are stoking fears worldwide that Putin could let missiles loose.
Third World War could put a stop to our next big election.
Leaders will rise through the waste by natural selection.
President Zelensky has accorded himself well.
His people stand behind him, telling Putin, “Go to hell.”
