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)
