Hubris Bears its Bitter Fruit

The goons had thought they'd humble Russia quickly.
That's not working out.  The gifts they shower onto
Their good friend, who's keen on genocide, are costing
Much more than they'd planned.  It seems the goons are
Going broke.  They do still wave their rusty sabers,
But they're short of other arms, just now, when anyone
Can see the Chinese smirking, marking time,
Before they strike the goons.
