comment on the Litvinenko murder case
It's not an ordinary execution,
mafioso, just for kicks,
no, it is a masterpiece of complication
with a megalomaniacal exaggeration,
schemed, prepared and organized for months
in the most studied way and with a vengeance,
with the careful transportation of the rarest
most expensive poison in the world,
and in the Russian way with vodka-wobbly hands,
here spilling some of it in various restaurants and airports,
almost all around all Europe, in Berlin and Stockholm
among other places, just to get a poor ex-agent liquidated,
with a vengeance from the firm he left, the KGB,
sought out in London, England, poisoned hundred times to death
by radioactive means at the cost only of five million pounds,
a Russian execution in the name of loyalty
to what? To Putin or the KGB, the new autocracy
which through the years already has become notorious
for so many murky murders of truth-telling journalists,
or to the lost cause of the fallen Russia,
which throughout her history has only gone from bad to worse?
We can not tell. We can just wonder at this Russian methodology.

Russian murder
