Pam from
The Office Goes to War
A young woman drills with a wooden rifle
She looks like Pam Beesly from
The Office An old man checks his antique shotgun’s breech
He looks like Grandpa going out for rabbits
The Ukraine is preparing for war
In a bunker a young man cuddles a cat
He looks like he should be driving a truck
An old woman practices field medicine
She looks like she’s done this before
The Ukraine is preparing for war
They all may die under Russian tank treads
Their government will watch on television
(For that’s how our leaders prepare for war)
