death to the samovars!

[constantine]

they swept across the northern steppes
hung a left and stomped on the bulgars
not that they didn't have it coming
the bulgars, by that point in time
had offended everyone in the peninsula
but that's besides the point
it had nothing to do with retribution,
poetic justice, or any of that crap
the samovars were just plain mean
surly too, ask anyone
but, even with their savage barbarism
their talent for rapine and plunder
they were but sunday schoolers
compared to the gratuitous and bloodthirsty
violence of the wandering tribes of mallomar
who would sell their own mother for a slab
of milk chocolate and graham cracker

Thx, Dino & God bless ya
