I wrote to Clinton
Australia tries girls, Canada's
-arrested; smuggled the drugs.
Reading this report and story
-gives me ride and takes me
-back to I wrote to Clinton:
- "You are wrong! "
Repeated the same to Hillary,
- (then, US First Lady!)
-since received no reply!
All in vain! Vain! Vain!
I was there on border
-near Oxus River…
The mules over there
-were smart, well-trained
-and knew directions
-where to go, departure…
-not needing a person
-to lead or direct them.
The cargo was hidden
-secured in saddles.
The beasts moved as if they
-went to eat and graze.
Clever, knew they
-of heading and the aim…
White House acted worried
-of opium, narcotics…
Reports said: "Taliban
-sell it to gain money
-to purchase arms!
-buy their needs…"
Arms- dealers, most Yankees
-guns from Israel, Brazil…
Then I was in Khojand
-learned and taught in Co-Op
-and researched history…
Funny was the US involvement
-with their men least aware,
- (their knowledge shallow waves
-of swamps; full of worms, corruptions…)
The local officials embezzled,
-took huge piece of pie
-of "bribe" for joining the Westerns…
On stage the show was
-exactly as happened
-in La Paz, time of Che.
Generous, Washington
-with tax that people paid
- (through the CIA
-to fight the Soviets!)
From this poker game
-not even a penny
-was to help the people
-in Latin America…
Everything was secret
-blinded were nations…
-from the give-and-take…
-mostly under table…
Thanks to the Perestroika
-Soviets' ex-slaves
-became the "C.I.S" presidents
-with whom dealt USA
- (corrupting with payments!)
-I wrote to Clintons:
- "…you are wrong and misled…"
