I hesitated on adding this because it is a very strange work. It's stylized for a speech from the period of Russian Revolution in october 1917. Before anyone asks, I do not symphatise with the communist idea. Long live the greatest revolution! May freely go the fight of class! We won't make the stupid constitution Tie the reign of the working mass! The time's long gone for tsar the tyrant! All power to the counsel's hands! No time for mercy, punish exploitants! Those not with us - against us stand! We go to battle, fellow comrades That will rearrange all the world! It is not a walk to open gates! It's blood of struggles yet untold! Glory to our beloved party! The truth is in the bolshoi boil! Death for reaction's White Anarchy And to the weak liberal choir! Imperialstic war in Europe Is not the one of our own! The Civil War we have to cope With in the rising new red dawn! The proprietors' scabb agenda Lies Lenin helps the German claim! Contrrevolution's propaganda Will not grow in Russian domain! Long life for the Central Committee! Land for the Russia righteous sons! Victory to our bolshoi party! We'll be praised in thanksgiving songs! When the torch of the revolution Will soak it's flame in all the realms, Children brought up in Soviet Union Will say that right was Lenin's deal!

"Allons, enfants ..... !" Written by PaulMcDermott ( comments posted) 7th April 2005 | I can almost hear the brass bands playing as I read! ? line 6: did you mean "council" rather than "COUNSEL"? and is the "bolshoi boil" (line 14) on somebody's backside ....?? Not (I hope!) nit-picking: this was a thoroughly enjoyable (if somewhat "dated"!!) picture of revolutionary Russia in its heyday! Keep 'em comin' !! | Attention! Written by Betsie (30 comments posted) 15th April 2005 | Well done - you have achieved what you set out to do and evoke the feeling of revolution. Not quite my cup of tea - (from a samovar) Loved Paul's backside boil! Sorry for my flippancy - a well constructed poem. |
