    Eleven Sixty-Seven, Parts IV and V

    Eleven Sixty-Seven, Part IV

    Today the street is closed
    for Russian-American Appreciation Day or Something
    and I almost called you to ask
    you to come here for
    Russian-American Appreciation Day or Something
    until I remembered
    you are Ukrainian, not Russian.

    I’ve called you Russian enough times. Is that
    bad? Do the Ukrainians
    have beef with the Russians? Really, who doesn’t.
    Really- the Russians are nearly as bad as we are,
    as I am,
    Really.

    Russia. Snow, the Cold War, Ballet-
    Did I tell you I finally saw Black Swan? It was
    not too good- not as good as seeing a ballet-
    but much cheaper. I didn’t like it-
    now I am afraid
    to go to the ballet. The time-lapse
    photography in Black Swan- that was well-done.
    Else,
    rare-
    at least it ought to be.

    But you aren’t Russian, and we remind
    each the other of each the other so much we make each the other
    sick-
    you especially intimidate me-
    you are
    a few years older, tall, handsome, your blond hair and beard, strong-
    the Russian in those art deco propaganda posters, truly-
    you make real money, and in a few years perhaps
    I’ll make real money, but I’ll never be tall, handsome, strong,
    as you are- but I will always
    be Russian.
