The Cooling Pond
perfect Pripyat marshes, oh,
the setting for a horror film;
college students spend the night,
came across the river,
in a dishwasher boat,
and on the other shore
there was the Chernobyl cooling pond...
and the dog did not bark…
so strange to see a cyclist,
and not to hear the dog bark,
and the students shiver.
a lot of bold mosquito,
whose bloody noses
spread the zombie parasite;
there dwells nearby a watchman
who charges forty rubles to tell you
that the mosquitoes are too thick,
and feed the dog a sausage
which could be your arm
when you wake up and hear
the dog barking
upon the river Pripyat
they invisible bark,
the childrens' silent cry,
the road of rock ruin
spread pandemic's news
in Russia we died in '98
and now we are immune
--
note
a student horror film based in Chernobyl.
some students spend the night by the cooling pond at Chernobyl
it is the anti-Yevtushenko
