Ukraine
A suffering nation.
The anticipation.
An impending destruction and threat.
The horror of an occupation.
A despicable violation.
Beleaguered,
bedevilled,
beset.
A vile oppression.
An illegal possession,
freedom rapped by the gun.
Though international condemnation,
no dictators obliteration,
a countries,
heart,
ever won.
Shroddingers Cake
A cake,
baked in the shape of the Greek letter 'pi'
It is at the same time a cake,
yet its is pi(e)!
Who Cuts The Hairdressers Hair
The hairdresser won't give herself a hair cut.
The train driver wont drive himself to town.
The dentist doesn't sort out their own teeth; nor
...the breakdown man attend his own breakdown.
The waiter doesn't serve themselves at tables.
The cashier handles cash that isn't theirs.
The teacher never taught themself their subject; and
...the bus driver doesn't charge himself the fares.
Nurses do not attend themselves in hospitals.
Retailers won't sell to the wholesale.
Paramedics never attended their own injury; and
...policemen never put themselves in jail.
So is it so that once an intrepid car sales-person
set sails to sail a yacht across the seas?
And that a refrigeration engineer
heard a whisper in his ear
and the chill he felt just brought him to his knees?
And that a delivery driver failed to deliver,
so the delivery; as such; was never made.
So they took him to midwife for some practice,
the driver said he'd have to make the grade.
The midwife was very highly experienced
had delivered many babies; this is true.
But I've never seen a baby being delivered,
from a white van,
'round the town
...how about you?
