O yes, Ukraine and Russia
almost one nation and country
and close relates
much more that others people and nations
around the world,
originated from one African woman,
had lived 160 thousands years ago.
Yes we are all close relates.
and among them who much closer
then more hates each others - mersilless and fatally -
as Russia and Ukraine.
One of them doing
the best and other the worst
things in vast Eurasia.
Oksana treat to be a just honest divchina, nice girl,
belong to European code and culture
while the Masha, so also very nice girl,
tied and stiffened with oprichnina, the intelligent servises
backing sovereign cleptocrasy
of states of thefts, raptors and vultures
and other post-soviet and post-imperial hurly-burly,s and cleptocrats
prodused by historical hellish mistakes and anachronism.
escaping from justice and condemnation.
So the face of truly Russian
is the face of nascent Ukraine
and success of the last would been
the excellent medicine
for the first,s imperial illness and pain.
So cold the river that runs
through my veins
I float lightly on the current
I want to drown my sorrows
And go back to a better place
A place I ran free with no restraints
My salvation is all I seek!

I wrote this when Mel Gibson was having that little talk with Oksana Grigorieva.
I posted it because Andrea wanted to see it.
