I loved this quatern your phrase May the heavens help us all fit so seamlessly into each stanza. You captured the moment we are all feeling as we hear and see what is happening. This poem also reminds me of 9/11. Nice job portraying our fears and the evils in this world.

Definitely an interesting picture, Jose. And this was a great quantern. I liked how you focused on the greed of a madman. He definitely is trying to start WWIII but the good people around the world is having no part of this. Perhaps he will, perhaps he won. Evil cannot and will not reign. Very well done, greatly enjoyed.

Congratulations on this milestone, 300th post!
To be sure, your poem is timely as we watch Ukraine invaded heartlessly.
An excellent Quarterback with a refrain so many of us our praying silently!
"May the heavens help us all."
Amen!

Thank you, Dolly. :) The write is OK, but the message is not. I don't like writing for war.
Comment from lyenochka
A great quatern for these times! May God judge this madman who's waging war and then lying saying it wasn't him who started it! He certainly is influenced by the evil one.
May the Lord protect the Ukrainians!

Comment from country ranch writer
War is linking off in the wings. Why? Because one greedy man wants it all to prove a point .What is that you ask ?That he can get others to do his dirty work so he can become ruler over others.

Comment from Yardier
Nicely done. Imagery is intense and gripping. You have penned a bothersome, yet, necessary view of the present state of mankind. Is there hope? Of course. As President Roosevelt said, "... the only thing to fear in fear itself."
All the best, Yard.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
You have written what we are all thinking. Putin and Satan seem to share a similar personality. They want it all and will do anything to gain it, no matter how awful. We all need to pray as you say, for God to help us all.

Yes, Carol, the devil is on the loose. We need to pray and keep faith.
Comment from Frances Jean
A well written Quatern obeying the requirements of the form and displaying nice end rhyming. I couldn't agree with you more. What is happening in this world; the greed, political unrest, fighting. I hate it! This dictator need to go before another world war spirals into fruition.

Thank you, Pearl. I believe that there is more than one heaven, for out there someone may be seeing their world in chaos.
