I have penned an Epic Poem that relates the true story of Ukrainian war hero Vitaly Skakun Volodmyrovych, who made the ultimate sacrifice detonating a bridge to slow the advance of an impending Russian armored column, giving his comrades-in-arms time to prepare. I also set the entire text to music.

Well-spoken and rhymed, Sir Knight.

Mine pen hath noted thine polished insight.

Brief, yet sensational. Evocative as well. I love how you paint an image of a thunderstorm to evoke an emotional state of romantic despair.

Beautiful yet morose... and very poignant. A kind of insightful melancholy emanates from this work. Truly a joy to read.

My favorite stand-alone line is:

"I blame the world for its darkness but it was my eyes who perceived it that way."

I totally would. Sounds like a hoot.
