The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
On Saturday.
An ‘orcs’ drone took up station.
Over an ‘elves’ army.
Training base in Cherkas’ke.
Cued by the drone.
An Iskander ballistic missile.
Streaked in.
32 ‘elves’ soldiers died.
And another 100.
Were wounded.
Three days later.
The ‘elves’ exacted their revenge.
The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
A drone from the ‘elves’ 14th.
Unmanned Aerial Systems Regiment.
Circled over.
An ‘orcs’ training base that.
Was “deep in the rear”.
In southern Ukraine.
Presumably in Kherson.
Or Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
The ‘elves’ Tavria.
Operational Strategic Grouping.
Opened fire.
Apparently with.
A HIMARS wheeled launcher.
Which fires 660-pound.
Precision-guided rockets.
As far as 57 miles.
Thirty ‘orcs’ trainees.
Died as submunitions.
Rained down.
The 14th UAS Regiment claimed.
The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
It was the ninth attack.
On ‘orcs’ training bases.
In 14 months.
It was the ninth attack.
On 21 November.
Around a dozen ‘orcs’ troops.
Piled out of civilian vans.
Somewhere in Zaporizhzhia.
An ‘elves’ drone.
Circled overhead.
Silently observing.
A HIMARS lobbed a single rocket.
It struck within yards.
Of the ‘orcs’ trainees.
Peppering them and their vehicles.
With lethal fragments.
The drone peered closer.
—and counted at least five.
Dead or badly.
Wounded ‘orcs’.
The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
In seven other strikes.
Since February 2024.
—in Zaporizhzhia.
In the south.
And Donetsk Oblast.
In the east, mostly—
‘Elves’ batteries killed.
Hundreds of ‘orcs’ trainees.
‘Orcs’ strikes.
On ‘elves’ trainees are.
Much less frequent and.
Overall much less bloody.
The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
If there’s anything.
That might save the ‘orcs’.
From themselves.
As they continue.
Parading their troops.
out in the open.
Within the range of.
‘Elves’ rockets.
It’s the U.S. President.
Barring a resumption.
Of U.S. aid.
‘Elves’ 40 or so HIMARS will.
Eventually run out of rockets.
—unless one of ‘elves’.
Loyal allies can supply.
Compatible rockets.
The HIMARS are.
‘Elves’ best weapons for.
These deep strikes targeting.
Vulnerable ‘orcs’ training grounds.
But they may fall silent.
In the coming months.
For want of ammunition.
For want of ammunition.
*Because I read “For The 9th Time In 14 Months, Russian Trainees Gathered In The Open—And A Ukrainian Rocket Took Aim” by David Axe on 4 Mar 2025 on the Forbes, and also “Why are Ukrainians calling Russians ‘orcs’?” by James FitzGerald on 30 Apr 2022 on the BBC news.
So, I wrote this poem.
