right now
we have electricity
right now
we have water
and heating
right now
kyiv
is surrounded
right now
there is no way
for any of us
to leave
and
we are ensuring –
by every means –
there is no
way
to enter
we are –
right now –
all there is
of kyiv
and we hold –
right now –
all there is
of kyiv
it is shrinking –
that is true –
as we are
constricted
and
constrained –
but
right now
we have . . .
we are
all
that there is
of kyiv

Keep expressing the way you do Frank. We all fear a repeat of WW2 only worse This makes the world a village, not planet earth. No one can remain untouched
