BOLSHIE
2000 YEARS OF LOVE
CONTINUED

(Anastasia's Guard)

I gave the order in Yekaterinburg.
The blood was in your eyes.
More than ever I wanted her
But in the forest she lies
Beyond
Wanting,
The white silk
Soiled beyond
Redemption.

Oh, Child Of Beauty
You came to me nlghtly
But not as lover
Nor even friend.
You know it was you
Who searched for my body
Oh, bittersweet rapture
We felt at the end
Of our time in Russia,
Strangely , carrying no
Children, no seeds of Empire
But loving, loving gently
No Bolshevik ruffian
Who loves only semen
Never heeding the trembling
That brings it forth helpless.

Oh, Warrior Woman
Coming and going in the
Revolutions' turning,
I love your body as it changes
In Time.
