POETS IN MARIUPOL

Bleeding. Freeing.

Willing. Mariupol.

 

Homeland.

Port town.

Remain.

The only one for me.

Bleeding. Freeing.

Shielding. Mariupol.

 

Drive a car.

Take a train.

Over the border.

I’ll be back for me.

Bleeding. Freeing.

Fleeing. Mariupol.

 

Resistant.

Prepared town.

Theater.

Secure for me.

Bleeding. Freeing.

Squeezed. Mariupol.

 

Azovstal

Steel Works.

Fortress town.

Do or die for me.

Bleeding. Freeing.

Besieged. Mariupol.

 

Bleeding. Freeing.

Seeking. Mariupol.

 

*Because I’ve watched and read about Mariupol  on the Internet, mainly the BBC news, from last month, and my friend sent me some movies from YouTube about ‘today’s Mariupol’.

So, I wrote this poem.
