P***y riot and the cossacks

P***y riot and the cossacks

A Poem by Baby Ricochet

Cossacks beat up p***y riot
At Putin's winter games
He don't play with dissidents
Perhaps the girls were framed

Would Russians book a punk rock act
Just to beat their a*s
In Putin's strong arm Russian world
there's nothing I'd put past

Author's Note

Baby Ricochet
Pussy riot is a Russian female punk band critical of Putin's strong arm rule. Consequently in a country with a history of popular strong arm rulers widely admired for their toughness by your average Russian pussy riot aren't exactly a popular group so it seemed strange for themto bbe invited to play at Putin's winter games and it's no surprise the cossacks wailed on them

Not surprising, knowing their history. But you can't keep a good band down for long. Very well written Baby. This is a much appreciated writing.

That's what I'm saying
P***y riot are special to the Russian. They stand for some kind of freedom. I was surprised when you stated they played at the Winter games. Maybe Russian are trying to look more kinder? Always a pleasure to read your words.

Indeed, it seems almost anti-climactic that there are no such "fight" to be had, well done, good read.
