Ussr Poems

Back in the USSR

June 21, 2025

For the Beatles 'Lay it to Me' song Contest by Charles Messina


The old iron curtain came down
But soon a clown reclaimed the crown
Ruthless and hollow-souled he rose
Now a foul Soviet wind blows
From the east it battered Ukraine
Spreading such cruel and endless pain
The past returns in blackened char
“Back in the U.S.S.R.”

Fist For Freedom

Union of my fingers
In the hand
Soviet a fist!
On the sovereign's body  
Yet why
Do I
H
I
T
My feet?
I remembered
I gotta get a hammer
and
Hang up
My father's sickle
On the republic's stable wall.

Back In the Ussr

Trust me, have I ever lied to you before
Okay once when I told you about dinosaurs
Told you I saw one
Sitting on his bum
Singing the Beatles, “Back In The USSR”

Back In the Ussr

Trust me, have I ever lied to you before
Okay once when I told you about dinosaurs
Told you I saw one
Sitting on his bum
Singing the Beatles, “Back In The USSR”

Union of Sanders Soviet Republic Ussr

Union of Sanders Soviet Republic USSR

There is a union of socialists who like Sanders
Phallic symbol of those who are philanderers
That have come up with a huge cavalcade
Of many solutions seeming to be readymade.

When things happen and are in much doubt
Put is a disk so some answers will pop out
After many things were over-exaggerated
While in long
