Battle of the Donbass
The airwaves are live, cameras are on,
covers the rising bi-polar dawn,
sanctions are cast, energy is played,
inflation begins, history is made.
Bold statements made by politicians,
of fuel supplies, deadly munitions,
moral integrity, clearly gone,
while western media cheers them on.
Biden mumbles and follows the script,
lend lease two, from American crypt,
billions of dollars flushed down the drain,
hyper inflation comes to Ukraine.
Control drags on from U.S. backed coup,
while NATO makes haste to follow through,
Russia has taken a solemn oath,
to stand for itself, and stop them both.
Weapons pour in on Euro rails,
a proxy war with weapons sales,
old treaties waning including START,
Zelensky plays his murderous part.
Russia steps up and takes full control,
protecting the east, and Slavic soul,
while NATO arms belligerent ghouls,
mercenaries taught in their schools.
The rush is on, to cut off supplies,
pincers in Donbass, terrors demise,
encircled twice, calls for surrender,
victory looms for Donbass defender.
From Reni prime to Russian Border,
Donbass returns to peaceful order,
with borders drawn, Ukraine split in two,
nothing’s left of the U.S. backed coup.
Except in Kiev, hard lines remain,
cauldrons of anger called the Ukraine,
there’s no way back from what they have done,
the nightmare’s over, Russia has won.
Europe stands firm, stock markets are down,
inflation, stagflation they all drown,
hubris embraced, American game,
another conflict by the insane.
and in this time, they tally the cost,
the staggering debt, what they have lost,
infightings close the E.U. borders,
while poverty ends their world order.
Around the world, supply lines go down,
lockdowns in China, in every town,
global order in total collapse,
energy supplies redraw the maps.
Gas lines are empty, transit has stopped,
economies broken, members dropped,
E.U. in tatters, U.S. enraged,
fallen demons, in nuclear age.
The E.U. shatters, nations break free,
join the union around the Black Sea,
lend lease kicks in, to lock up Ukraine,
diminished state, no longer the same.
POTUS Biden, removed from power,
global war in eleventh hour,
E.U. joins in, the commonwealth too,
make one last stand before they are through.
A suicide pact of confusion,
madness embraced in an illusion,
for sun then sets on their empires,
while Europe burns, consumed by fire.

By: The Activist Poet
About this Quatrain Poem: When you know who and what runs the world, including the ways in which they operate, it’s easy to forecast and make predictions about the future.
However, when people are not informed on two sides of an argument, or indeed the history of the argument or conflict, the opinions and conclusions that materialize from the resulting analysis, are prone to error with a lack of vision. In essence, they are uninformed and misguided opinions and lack the knowledge of what is really going on.
As I wrote in my second book, “The Activist Poet Vol 2”, the mainstream media have a lot to answer for as I blame them directly for misinforming western audiences for many decades.
The resource wars that people have endured around the world over the past 20 years are a testament to this conclusion; that the mainstream media are responsible for the crimes against humanity perpetrated by western powers on the innocent people…millions could have been spared the horrors they faced had the mainstream media done their jobs…
A very important example of this, is the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The media played a large role in the demonization of Russia while hiding the belligerent elements supported by western powers. The war in Ukraine did not just start in 2022 but started in 2014 when a violent western backed coup removed the democratically elected government of Ukraine which then launched a genocide on Russian speaking Ukrainians with ancestral and cultural connections to Russia. An important fact left out by mainstream media.
I consider myself informed on the situation in Ukraine because I have followed what has been going on there since 2014 and earlier, while also reading and learning about the history of the region. But I have also studied and followed the economic trends, global politics and have seen, by personal experience, how corporate economics works and operates in Europe, Canada and America. I was a lean manufacturing specialist working with CEO’s, CFO’s and their corporate bottom lines, so I understand how, and by what means, economic growth works.
The poem above predicts the conclusion of the War in Ukraine based on my analysis of the events that have led up to Russia’s direct involvement and moral commitment to protect its people. The poem also touches on the break up of the European Union due to heavy handed American economic pressure that forces nations to cut off all business ties with Russia including the energy sector of oil and gas which Europe relies upon heavily. I mean, simply stated, without cheap energy, there is no economy and so the pressures that will arise in the near future, by citizens at home and in the individual European nations will force their governments to break away from the totalitarian European union that controls all aspects of their economic future…there’s no future without energy and there’s even less of it when global oil and gas can no longer fill demand.
The problem facing Europe, and everyone else for that matter, is that there is no replacement for lost energy in a world no longer able to supply global energy demand which is why I have touched briefly on the state of Global economics. The global economic machine is breaking down and is in an advanced state of decline.
Tensions are rising and so we will see a continuation of events that will ultimately kill oil demand as we see energy prices go through the roof along with inflation…and you know that the global order will continue to use their fabricated pandemic to kill energy demand as we are seeing in China where whole cities such as the 26 million residents of Shanghai are being locked down and not allowed to leave their homes, not even for groceries. It’s been a month and so if you understand economics well enough, you will know that global trade, which thrives through China’s annual 8% growth rate has come to a complete stop. Shanghai is the busiest container port in China…the feedback loop will be seen down the road as inflation rises, energy prices continue to spike and supply lines continue to break…(We’re already there).
Shanghai is not the only Chinese city to be locked down either and there are many more on the way. Long disruptions will also lead to food shortages in these Chinese cities and food shortages lead to revolt. The same can be said when you analyze energy shortages and how they effect economics, inflation, decisions and food supply. It may be believed that China is locking down it’s citizens for a flu virus but in reality, there is panic behind the government curtain regarding the shortage of energy, the cost of it and the interrupted supply chains.
The decision to lockdown cities of tens of millions of people brings with it a safety, security and logistics nightmare which have really serious consequences and the potential for massive revolt.
That is why, even in the west, we are seeing fascist totalitarianism in countries like Australia, New Zealand, France and Canada, and why we are seeing a huge rise in energy prices, massive inflation and a rise in poverty…but that’s a theme for the next quatrain poem. 😉
