Which is easiest to do,
Un-dish-cover fish,
or dishcover the riddle?’
Which is easiest to do?
‘“First, the fish must be caught.”
That is easy:
a baby, I think,
could have caught it.
“Next, the fish must be bought.”
That is easy:
a penny, I think,
would have bought it.
“Now cook me the fish!”
That is easy,
and will not take
more than a minute.
“Let it lie in a dish!”
That is easy,
because it already
is in it.
“Bring it here!
Let me sup!”
It is easy to set
such a dish on the table.
“Take the dish-cover up!”
Ah, that is so hard
that I fear
I’m unable!
For it holds it high glue–
Holds the lid to the dish,
while it lies

Which is easiest to do,
Un-dish-cover fish,
or dishcover the riddle?’
Which is easiest to do?
US officials are.
In Moscow to discuss.
A potential ceasefire.
Between ‘Mordor’ and Ukraine.
The Special envoy arrived.
On Thursday morning.
To try to convince ‘Mordor’.
To accept a 30-day ceasefire.
Which Ukraine agreed to.
Earlier this week.
In talks.
With the US.
‘“First, the fish must be caught.”
That is easy:
a baby, I think,
could have caught it.
The American visit comes.
As the ‘orcs’ military.
Claimed to have.
Recaptured Sudzha.
– a key town.
In the Kursk region that.

On Wednesday and.
Met military commanders.
Who told him.

He had received.
“Positive messages”.
About the possibility.
Of a ceasefire.

Means nothing,” he said.
“This is a very.
Serious situation.”
In the Oval Office.
The US president said.
That he believes.
A ceasefire would.
A ceasefire would.
Make sense for ‘Mordor’.
Adding – without.
Further details –

Land and other things.

The US President added.
“We know the areas of land.
We’re talking about.
Whether it’s pull back.
Or not pull back.”
“Take the dish-cover up!”
Ah, that is so hard
that I fear
I’m unable!
For it holds it high glue–
Holds the lid to the dish,
while it lies
in the middle:
To pressure ‘Mordor’.
The US President said.
That he “can do.
Things financially”.
“That would be.
Very bad for ‘Mordor’.
I don’t want to do that.
Because I want to get peace.”
“Take the dish-cover up!”
Ah, that is so hard
that I fear
I’m unable!

Which is easiest to do?
*Because I read “US team in Moscow for Ukraine talks as Russia retakes key town” by Bernd Debusmann Jr on 13 Mar 2025, and also “Why are Ukrainians calling Russians ‘orcs’?” by James FitzGerald on 30 Apr 2022, on the BBC news.
So, I wrote this poem, led by ‘THROUGH the LOOKING-GLASS’ written by Lewis Carroll, you know.
