Lev POSTOLOV
SUVOROV-STYLE.
"Russia has no borders."
Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Field marshal Suvorov once said
After crossing the Alps
With his expeditionary army,
When in the morning he
A colleague, an Austrian general,
Noted that Suvorov was dousing himself
With a bucket of water, as if at home
In Russia:
"Eternally, wherever
a Russian soldier takes a crap
there is Russia."
That's why, apparently, for centuries
And Baba Yaga grumbles
In Russian fairy tales
Wrinkling her nose:
"Ugh, ugh! - It smells
of the Russian spirit!"
