Krokodil, by Amory McKeever




Goodbye dear Chernobyl rain
And all of its grey fallout
Farewell our old friend Ukraine
We will miss you no doubt

We know that we lost the war
Kalashnikov is rust and legend
We're not making tanks no more
But it's much worse than we imagined

Crocodiles took our future
Yet we let not a scream
We just inject a liquid suture
And escape in desomorphine

The crocodiles can smell our fear
They hide under the hopelessness
The crocodiles shed bogus tears
While they devour us en mass
