Extract
from a poem by Kirill Medvedev:
we obtained the right to have an anti-fascist
protest but not a march.
I went with the human rights activist
Ponomarev to sort it out at the mayor’s
office. Ponomarev was very angry. I restrained
him a bit.
I’ll show them what it means to let fascists
have rallies, he said.
I felt that it wasn't going to end well.
Oleinik, the department’s deputy director
for mass rallies
turned out to be a fat, rosy-cheeked
kewpie.
