on Moscow
allegations thrown
child killer fears for his life
threatens more killings
~
n.b. Moscow is run by a mass murderer, who throws a squinny when he claims, without independent verification, that drones were sent to Russia assassinate him. No comment about the hundreds of thousands of lives lost as a result of his orders. No words can describe the contempt this man generates.

On Moscow
Spiders eating each other in a jar
I saw one, a Pholcus phalandgioides
the Daddy Long Legs spider
Eat a Crane Fly, THE Daddy Long Legs
It was a warm autumn evening.
Fluttering, where wall met ceiling, caught my ear
The spider's small round body, an impossibly small pea-sized pea size
determinedly consuming its larger prey
The crane fly's slow-motion crumpling
joint by joint, papery wing by papery wing
flutter, flutte, flutt, flut, flu, fl, f
Then gone
It took a while.
To be honest, I was shocked.
Still am.
Spiders eating each other in a jar.

n.b. NaPoWriMo 2023 continues, but the Earth spins on. I was interested to read of an incident in Moscow, a pro-war blogger assassinated.
The spiders reference came from a comment by Mykhailo Podolyak, an official in Kyiv, when asked for his thoughts on the restaurant bomb. Even in war, poetry.

on Ukraine
witness destruction
meted out by Earth's shaking
you men are feeble

n.b. The instantaneous chaos of an earthquake takes seconds to kill thousands, Russia determined to replicate Nature’s awesome strength in suffocating slow-motion. What does Moscow gain from the slaughter?

man angry after
the great humilation
no one must mock him

n.b. It was his, then he lost it, so he smashes it. No one can enjoy Kherson, if he cannot. Man, or toddler?
Moscow, you are proud to be led by such a creature?

distant drones despatched

n.b. Hey, Moscow! Why sacrifice the blood of your sons when you can just murder people in their beds in Kyiv remotely?
How low can a human being go?
