Un-Feeling Onions
UN-FEELING ONIONS
Russian onions are all angry onions
They brook no differing opinions,
Disdain for our tears is obvious
To our suffering they are oblivious.
When we peel them, we cry -
They don’t like us - but why?

NOTE In English we describe onions as “strong”,
but in Russian they are described as “angry”.
