A Wise One Will Never Tell Your Fortune

 The most a wise one can do is point out the possibilities' 

Wisdom

 

If the rain falls, the sun shines in the right proportions and a hundred other variables all come together this blossom will become a long black string bean. 

That's a lot of 'ifs'.

But I'm no wise one. So, I'm about to foretell the future:

When the last shot in the Battle Of Bakhmut has been fired, the last casualty taken and the last body buried the grief and horror will go on. Everyone will declare 'we will not forget.' But that won't stop the next Bakhmut.
