But Yevtushenko...                       A tribute to Penguin paperbacks When they Someday Take us away For reading For thinking For writing Those Penguin paperbacks all tattered and taped Discovered when they empty our pockets           Will Be used against us in their courts of law But Yevtushenko might corrupt our jailers

But Yevtushenko Might Corrupt Our Jailers - a tribute to Penguin paperbacks
But Yevtushenko...                       A tribute to Penguin paperbacks When they Someday Take us away For reading For thinking For writing Those Penguin paperbacks all tattered and taped Discovered when they empty our pockets           Will Be used against us in their courts of law But Yevtushenko might corrupt our jailers
Today is Yevgeny Yevtushenko's birthday (1932). Your ‘umble scrivener’s site is: Reactionarydrivel.blogspot.com It’s not at all reactionary, tho’ it might be drivel. Lawrence Hall’s vanity publications are available on amazon.com as Kindle and on bits of dead tree: The Road to Magdalena, Paleo-Hippies at Work and Play, Lady with a Dead Turtle, Don’t Forget Your Shoes and Grapes, Coffee and a Dead Alligator to Go, and Dispatches from the Colonial Office.
