See the video of my poem Lyubov Sirota "RADIOPHOBIA"
Excerpted from of Rollan Sergienko's film "Threshold".
An English translation can be found at: http://www.wsu.edu/~brians/chernobyl_poems/chernobyl_index.html.
This poem has been written and filmed still in 1988, it is directed against the lies, falsehoods, and double standards of the criminal authorities of the former USSR. But in view of the recent, most terrible events, i.e., Russia's military aggression in Georgia, this poem might now also be addressed to those who have created this war, and who once again conceal their terrible plans beneath attractive and deceptive rhetoric...

About me: The poet, journalist, playwright, translator Lyubov Sirota - one of eye-witnesses and of the victims of the Chernobyl disaster, who has gone through a pain of parting with the native city of Pripyat, with friends, relatives... The poetry of Lyubov Sirota became more known to the world after the film of Rollan Sergienko "Threshold", the co-author and one from heroes of which she was, also after the edition of the collection of her poems "Burden".
"Lyubov Sirota - the poet with unusually sharp sensation of time. Emotionality of her word, organic communication of the civil and personal beginnings, scale of thinking create a magic forceful field of her poetry, as much as possible outline radius of poetic self-expression of the author " - from the summaries to this book. "The thinking about the spoiled nature, illnesses, about human tragedies, them caused, about love - are the main themes of her poetry. I am convinced, that "Burden" - one of the first texts declaring really about ecological accident menacing to all of us..." - from the article "Reflection of ecological thinking in Russian art texts of XX century" by the professor of the Bergamo University Ugo Persi (the magazine "Russian abroad", 3/2001).
And thanks to the professor of the Washington University Paul Brians the poems of Lyubov Sirota (in Elizaveta Rich and Leonid Levina's English translations) have sounded in the National radio of America (program Terra Infirma), have been published in anthologies: "Life on the Line: Selections on Words and Healing"; "Perspectives from the Past"; "A Fierce Brightnesss: Twenty-Five Yars of Women's Poetry", and also in the Canadian and American magazines: "Calyx", "Woman World", "Promin'", "Journal of the American Medical Association"; "New York Quarterly", "WISE", "The Russell Record Magazine", "The Modern Review", "In Our Own Words", etc.

And the short video of my son about our dead town - Pripyat: "Spring Pripyat" by Alexander Sirota ..
More his video-films about Pripyat and Chernobyl catastrophe, etc. you can see in my channel on YouTube "Our Pripyat".
The city Pripyat in northern Ukraine was once home to approximately 50,000 people, many of whom were workers at the ill fated Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Pripyat was abandoned in 1986 following the accident. Today it is a ghost town, a macabre legacy to the catastrophe that was, is Chernobyl. The answers to all the questions at www.pripyat.com
/ See the video-gift about even alive Pripyat from my wonderful young Austrian friend Alex (Alexander Kleinberger), with whom I again have visited Pripyat 8.05.08 after a four-year-old break. The video contains very rare photos made in Pripyat from his beginning 1970 up to his end April, 26-th 1986. The author of video thanks a site pripyat.com for these unique photos of Pripyat!
Pripyat, we will never forget you!

Dear Lyubov,
It's great to hear from you and thank you for the warm welcome from the Ukraine. my dad an I are still planning out little trip but in might not be until next year now but we'll be coming and are loking forward to visiting your beautiful country. My Russian is coming on fine so by next year I might be able to hold a proper conversation. My dad is also learning Ukrainian so between us we'll be ok (we can both read cyrillic now).
I am no longer on Facebook as I have had a bit of an awakening and decided to have a completely new start with new friends (and a few old ones too) so feel free to read my poems on my blog.
But for now I'm going to get on with some work for University so I will catch up with you soon.
"Imperfectly perfect
God's immaculate design
Naturally fragile, intuitively strong
Her beauty divine
Mother of the nations
Loves most passionate creation
Of all that is life and all that is real
Misunderstood by the brotherhood
Who choose to hide from their feminine side
Concealing their emotions and how they feel
She is alive to be loved and free as the wind on the sail of a boat in the journey of time.
As a man I fail
If I never receive the love, of life’s ultimate gift.
