"Poet: Yefimovsky, Y. “The Fighting Pencil” group
The boss was curt and unrefined.
—Finish the bridge by the deadline.
—The crane is down? Not enough men?
Out of concrete? Let’s change the plan.
Then, finally, on the set date
A crowd came to celebrate.
The bridge is new and wide and …shoot!
It’s not made of concrete but… wood!
When plans are changed in such a way
That all the work goes down the drain,
The culprits who cause plans to crash
Are bound to go down with a splash! "

Poet: Smirnovski, S. “The Fighting Pencil” group, 1969
The picture reads: “Our building after the renovation.”
Superintendent has a heart of stone
He wants to be just left alone.

"Poet: Yefimovsky, Y. “The Fighting Pencil” group, 1981
This road has just been completed,
But it won’t stay smooth for long.
For as the builders are retreating,
The pipeline’s coming right along."
