Homage to A. S. Pushkin
For Black History Month
By Tatiana Pahlen

With surging buoyancy and courage
Your words fly high above the sky
Enriched by a chain of motley heritage
Your lucid soul grants us to love.
No man can take away your honor
Your playful genius and craft
Not any other man of color
Shall call you brother, but
Hierarch!
