A Plight of Power

A Plight of Power

Within the halls of might and sway,
Putin, once proud, now kneels to pray.
Begging for weapons, he makes his plea,
In North Korea’s realm of mystery.

Gone are the days of grand dominion,
Where strength was kept within his opinion.
Now humbled, he must seek their aid,
In this precarious moment, he’s afraid.

Yet pride lives on, in whispers it weaves,
A desperate plea, amidst political upheaves.
For what will come next, no one can tell,
As power plays ring, a haunting bell.

Diplomatic games, a struggle for might,
Putin’s quest for weapons, a perilous fight.
In North Korea’s grasp, his fate in their hand,
A twisted alliance, on shifting sand.

As shadows dance and tension grows,
The world watches as the story unfolds.
Will the weapons be given, power renewed?
Or will generals and kings watch the scene skewed?

In this tale of pride and unsteady ground,
A leader’s worth, in humility found.
Putin bows, cap in hand, in this strife,
Seeking weapons, a desperate cry for life.
