Grandeur Way Poem by Anatoly Kudryavitsky

More winters or just this one.
—Horace

The Hydra-headed father of the nation looks like the day you meet him. He is sick to his lobbies, his airports swell but he'll survive a bout of motleyness.
He uncled many nomads and expellies who disguise their true navels with raggery. His second ugliest head is heavy-jawed about it.
According to The Hades News, he has inherited a little acre in Tartarus. This gives him a hellish pleasure, but claiming his fortune for him, being immortal, can prove difficult. Still, history keeps trying until it succeeds.
