A dung fly...
By Alex Feldman
If a dung fly appears in your home,
don’t learn to coexist.
Throw it out.
It's not a great loss.
This is a compact, aphoristic poem built around a simple but loaded image:
the “dung fly”
The last line is key:
“Невелика потеря.”
“It is no great loss.”
The poem feels almost proverb-like—minimal language carrying ethical instruction.
The Russian original is very spare and imperative.
