Ode To John Lennon

From Epiloge  for novel “Eleanor Rigby” 

This music has really transformed our world. 
It stressed greatly the Central Asia (previous part of USSR) also,
in the time of Cold War and Iron Fences,
when our old fathers-communist leaders,
rotten in power and ruling by Soviet empire till the death,
fighting with freedom, capitalism and  Beatles also
as with the decadence and poisoning art of dying West, 
until USSR itself collapsed down from stupid governance
and violence and supressing of right of man. 

By the way for our olders known 
that according with  an ancient Kyrgyz prophesy  
every millennium bring to world the singer,
who might to crumble mountains and great evil empires
just with his stunning powerful songs.

Now we are  going  to understand 
who was been really John Lennon.

Thank forever, bard of millennium, 
singer with Irish-Kyrgys root,
the modern Ossian, 
Orpheus who saved our world 
and presented freedom for prisoned East.
You are deserved the deepest our respect and love for that
in generation to generation
as long as sounds 
this unusual music here and everywhere -
Mind games, Stand by me, Imagine,
Girl, Instant karma, Across the Uneverce.

Thank you, David, for support me. I am just now read yours previous "hidden" comment for my poem 'The tragic game...' and another kind words to this verse. I am just walk in the cloud, heaven or in the back side of our planet. Yes he was prophet. No one compared him with the Crist but I am sure his music sounds in Heaven and God like him.
