Listen
A offering to the Great Leader from the Poetry Czar
of the Greenpoint Autonomous Region of Leaderonia
in honor of the Great Delivery...if a bit late...
Listen,
if stars are lit
it means - there is someone who needs it.
It means - someone wants them to be,
that someone deems those specks of spit
magnificent.
And overwrought,
in the swirls of afternoon dust,
he bursts in on the Great Leader,
afraid he might be already late.
In tears,
he kisses the Great Leader's sinewy hand
and begs him to guarantee
that there will definitely be a star.
He swears
he won't be able to stand
that starless ordeal.
Later,
He wanders around, worried,
but outwardly calm.
And to everyone else, he says:
'Now,
it's all right.
You are no longer afraid,
are you?'
Listen,
if stars are lit,
it means - there is someone who needs it.
It means it is essential
that every evening
at least one star should ascend
over the crest of the building.
1914
(Vladimir Mayakovsky, translated by the Czar)

freedomization, the Great Leader return to spread hopes and
policies among the people of Leaderonia.
There has been rumor that the lower leaders of the provinces
have meet in the Alps to oppose the Great Leader's project,

reports confirming that the Lord of the Unisted States,
the fanatical religious leader of the land on which Leaderonia
has its State, is posed to deliver the annual speech in which
he will declare war to his own people's social security, aiming
at luring young workers with promises of wealth for their old
age only if they leave their money outside their door for the
free market to pick up, close their eyes, and count to 2028.
[recommended explanation for young workers here]
The Grand Project is the Great Leader's agenda for this month
of February, in which astrologers have seen an extraordinary
opportunity for success, as the GL 's rulers planets Jupiter and
