  • Bear Hug

    A daughter is crying on her cell

    Oh my dearest mom

    Believe me, believe me

    The bombs are falling all around.

    The mother from Muscovy laughs aloud

    Are you awake, my sweetheart

    A hallucination, a nightmare no doubt.

    My bear is a polar one, eager to hug you all

    Proselytization is not Jesus’s call.

    My dear child

    Nothing to fear

    The winner will not take it all.

    The daughter cries out

    Mom, my dearest mom

    I love you

    I love you most.

    When no more call reaches to you

    Believe then, believe then

    That your Bear has taken me out.

    Ferocity, deception, and sheer arrogance

    Will prevail

    The winner will take it all.

    @apology to Abba for the line “winner takes it all”
