My land’s orphan
by Kira Rodionova

Peaches heated by my sun
A dress so simple and so cotton
Would that child ever come
Back home
Where she is forgotten

Would the wind caress the ankles
Like it did so many times before
Would that land eventually remember
That her daughter is left outdoors?

Прапор
by Sanja Atanasovska

Там, де червоний і жовтий кольори,
там і я,
ношу їх із собою і в собі.
Каміння з усіх країн світу
не варте однієї македонської піщинки.
Коли я буду вам потрібна,
ідіть за моїм прапором і знайдете моє коріння.

Переклад із македонської Анни Багряної

Another Daring Deed – in Trump’s own words on Soleimani’s death
by Dr. Robert Ippaso

Yes, I’ve done it once again
Removed a seeping cancerous pain,
Soleimani’s dead and gone,
The devil’s agent, the Ayatollah’s pawn.

Long the source of all things bad,
Few if any should feel sad,
If his passing caused a stir
His gruesome end aimed to deter.

Jawaan: Bhagwan ka vardaan(specially for Pulwama attack)
by Aradhaya Mishra

Mere watan ke har uss jawaan ko salaam,
Jo ladaa apni jaan Ko karke kurbaan.
Apni zindagi ka na rakha koi maan,
Or chal diye ladne dushmano se seena taan.
Hamare jawaano ki hai apni hi shaan,
Na kabhi bane kisi ke bhi gulaam.

Par laalat hai aise aatankwaadiyo par yar,
Jinhe sikhaya gaya karna peeth par vaar.
Unhe lagaa ab Bharat maan gya haar,

Ciel macédonien
by Sanja Atanasovska

Je marche à travers les arcs-en-ciel de quelqu'un d'autre

Je bouge mon âme

dans une petite valise

et j'oublie toutes les pierres

qui venaient de près

Filth
by Igor Vykhovanets

Police Dramas

Police shows—like Soviet syrup,
Sticky, slow, and dull in tone.
They need a drink to wake them up,
To snap out of their endless drone.

Immigrants all say it clear,
The Soviet’s back, it’s here to stay.
No need for talent, just the fear,

The Ballad of Mike’s Flag
by Joe Cyr

(Inspired by a Sen. John S. McCain speech about POW Mike Christian in Vietnam)

At the “Hanoi Hilton” in Hao Lo, North Vietnam,
a captive’s life was hard;
treatment of Allied POWs was brutal
and conditions there inhumane.
All suffered years of abuse in a world defined
by the walls of the prison yard.
One day, young aviator Mike Christian found,
in the prison compound’s sewer drain,

Honor to U.S. Veterans and First Responders
by Joe Cyr

(Flag Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Veteran’s Day)

The word is out. The word is out.
Heed the bugle’s call.
Listen up! Listen up!
Hail our veterans all.
Now hear this! Now hear this!
Hark to the bosun’s pipe.
Today is a special day, so let’s not have your gripe.
“Oh, yeah, so what; we hear that stuff each and every year.”
