Novel Rus'
Do you see girls in the distance? Sent to the province of S. Weighed down with fear and satchels Coal tokens under duress The world of daughters is closed to them And, shivering, we've worn out that seam It was a novel ruse Valentina, lost to commerce Just as our Alyosha to blades I had dreamed I'd see her happy Walk in her great gala parade The world of sentiment fell on the day We bargained our children for warmth In a novel ruse The words of emmisaries jumbled our thoughts And, shivering, we plumped for the heat It was a novel ruse on our part If we'd known just where it leads To a bed of broken hearts To a rumbling on the fields Novel ruse, and it felt Bloody awful to conveive Should I hang from a belt? Should I take my cue and leave?
