History and biography
My Motherland have thousand years of history
Probably this is why
People do not care about it
If you have just couple centuries left behind
You take history much more personally
You told me about American presidents
Like they have been your relatives or your neighbors
You tried to explain me shameful Monkey Trail
From the prospective of ordinary people
I was almost witness of more terrible things
When scientists have been fired, exiled, jailed and killed
Just because they did study Genetic
And Cybernetic that now shape our world
With all what computers bring to life
Have been condemned as a “Prostitute of Capitalism”
And taken out from the text books of any kind
Two continents, two countries two histories come across
Actually just biographies of two lonely people
And the world outside become small and not that important for me
When I am resting in the warm harbor of your arms.
