Babie Leto

during the warm last days
of the old women summer
of 2008

i frantically searched
for my lost copy of
das kapital

i couldn't find it
it disappeared behind
a wall of books
19 years ago

russians in my hometown
gloated at my puzzled face
watching reporters of
Первый канал spelling the word

bankruptcy

with malicious delight
marx was right

globalisation
global warming
and the impacting
asteroid 2008 tc3
caused a complete
meltdown

of worldwide capitalism
