UKRAINE - - ? GAZA - - -? -- and all places in-between
With lacklustre eyes
and steel-trap jaws
the BLACK DOG trots - -
- - unbidden,
angst-riven
mist hidden
at heel
keeping pace - -
- - maintaining the space
in a chilling embrace
of raw power - -
- - Overwhelming
fear ascending,
tears descending
it tightens the grip
that controls the measure- -
- - increasing the pressure
testing the mettle - -
- - to breaking point.
BLACK DOG is Churchillian 'speak' for depression.

There is very little in the news currently that elicits anything other than negativity. The world cannot be allowed to slide into
another global conflict even though some would most certainly benefit from it. in the words of the song it's a question of balance!
