The War In Ukraine, Good News And Bad


The good news is, if you like silver linings,

they’re using up all that old ordinance

that otherwise might have gone to waste.

The other good news, if you can stand it, is

they’re learning new things: some systems don’t work.

And they’re getting better at de-mining farmland,

using drones, if you can imagine that.


The bad news is: the controlled hostilities

may become uncontrollable, then away we go,

not to mention a few other things.
