A Pie Rhyme

i have been hating you so long time that strictly speaking i forgot why strictly speaking i so hate you and who you strictly speaking are In modern Russian poetry, there is such a genre as "stish'ok-pirozh'ok" (a pie rhyme). It's an iambic tetrameter quatrain, a feminine ending in the first and third lines, no rhymes, punctuation and capital letters. The content is frivolous or humorous. Black humor is welcome. Something like an English limerick, but simpler. Hoping, the soupers would like it) * Translation. © djfedos
