Wandering from explosions
Through Kharkiv
Not quite a refugee, citizen, or subject
As I pass among ceramic bear statues
And the ghosts
Of national law changing
Opera house fires
We probably each know Swedes
A threat no more
But there's still brother wars
Climbing gestalt architecture
Iconoclast with copper handles
But you don't fear bacteria anymore
Those biolabs exported with your agriculture
Bread basket of the world
Den of money launderers
A Banana Republic through color revolution
Caused by, and much like, mine
Though we deny your genocide
Watching lawn mower powered drones
From your once tallest building
Eisenstein filmed here
I'm sure his family faired better than yours
You watch the Odin-ordained transgender leader
Of the Azov battalion pass - controlled opposition
And reports of the Joan of Arc sniper's wedding
Before the blackout
To think we each could've come from
This censored expansion in all directions
From these steppes
Retaining something from the Antes
Or other archetypes
