Kremlin Postkard of Kandor
A missive postkard from Russia to Amerika:
Deer Amerikan elekted leaders:
Yuri headlight Magnitsky bad policy,
of swift monetary attrition Ru$$ian decision,
have sanktion krashed our ekonomy
Das black ice spangled action
send our oligarchy Soviet markets
ruble roulette spinning
Such rogue demokracy konduct
make the proletariat people suffer much
in das Motherland
Why show such sub-zero Siberian love?
Can Supreme Politburo we
speak Kremlin kandidly:
Why must das trafficking bald eagle
blow das trump
so elektion help unfriendly?
Sekrecy is valued above all
in das Ural heartland
Kabal charakter is a klandestine
medal of distinktion
Thus unofficially, this solemn body SP
send back channel love
to our silver sly komrades
in das golden land of merchant liberty
We Bolshevik hate
that some had to double agent make
das gulag cell sakrifice
We Lenin love
that these Marxist martyrs embraced
das dictator way of life
May their kompromat ruble greed
be planted deeply
in das hallowed halls of demokracy
Let more Stalinist tears of tyranny
be shipped freely
unto das twin shores of coin liberty
Sadly, propaganda fear
has submarine surfaced once again,
between past Alaskan trading partners —
Northern exposure former friends
Yuri czar truly
would yield Molotov easy détente bend
Allow Vladdy us
to make Manchurian Kandidate amend
From Russia with love,
we silo kisses send this Kremlin postkard to Amerika
Kandid spy picture of
our subterfuge gift: Cold hypo-kritical mass hysteria
Forgive broken translation,
due to heavy mushroom kloud interference
Yuri truly,
admire Khrushchev much
such elekted kompassionate patience
of das unwavering flag treachery
