I despise rich Russian scum,
they think they can do anything,
and they *do*,
trampling all asunder,
as if god’s “chosen”,
easing vague memories
of Stalinist excesses
with pious consumerist decadence.
They know they are disliked,
but they don’t give a shit,
time’s too precious for that,
keen awareness of transience:
today’s king, tomorrow’s Romanov
(we can hope).
Hah!
Despicable scum, indeed,
exploitative, lying, thieving criminals,
the worst form of prostitute,
rather like their compatriots,
the English, and Chinese,
Americans, French, Iranians, and on…
… People (fallen, debauched, empowered),
now there’s a story!
