Description
"Poet: Yefimovsky, Y. “The Fighting Pencil” group
—Move the cattle operation,
Build a hog pen in this site!
New boss, new consideration.
—He is sure to make things right.
—No pigs in this location!
For community’s delight
Yet another boss takes action –
Builds a new club to make things right.
—Stop, tear down this construction!
Plant the wheat here, red and white.
Third boss wants more crop production.
Years go by, things still not right.
Such administrative shuffle
Brings the farmers only trouble.
This poster targets the ills of frequent leadership change that disrupts continuity in decision making."
