Oh Vova, My little Vova Sitting on your throne of skulls You survey your frozen kingdom and as you always do You grimace With bitterness tempered by the ages Born a citizen of a scarlet empire. now the tyrant of a tricolor nation           You are both the largest and the smallest man Who does reside in this time-worn land You rule your potemkin empire with a fist of iron, a gaze of lead and a voice of kolokol-1 Your inhumanity is well practiced From your days in the KGB Your “New Russia” is merely a kleptocratic mockery of it’s golden years A cheap ersatz mimicry of Russia’s grandest days Few things could bring your hard slavic face to show Even the smallest modicum of joy But there he stands Dima!, oh Dima The light of your life The only man with the power To make the Czar smile
