Biography
Mother Txorkulag was born at 00681-A4 Tigezie Street (then an unnumbered house) in Tekpu on August 2nd, 1938. Her father, Anzer, managed a toad farm from his basement and her mother, Kornelia, was a journalist who wrote under the male pen name Og Karmezol. They were ardent nationalists and supporters of secession. As was popular among these "Grey Elite" they named their children after secessionist leaders Puat Hokz.un and Dr. Narga Tam-Bôtxal.
A prostitute from age 16 to 22 or thereabouts, she may be noted for stuffing revolutionary pamphlets in her clients' coat pockets.
She joined the agitprop-dissemination squadron of the local Ubu Communist Party Cell in 1959. It was during this period that she wrote several poems calling for overthrow of Anak Akbarkan's Soviet satellite state. These were noted for their quality and formed the basis of ideas for Txorkulag's later contributions to the present National Anthem.
She shook the esteemed hand of Dr. Hokz.un, soon to be the Prime Minister, during his visit to Tekpu immediately after the Revolution in March 1961. She dusted her hand with a toothbrush for hours afterward, hoping to save the precious skin cells.
She became acquainted with the Omonia-Golka cadre, fresh from the University, after moving to Num-Poki in October 1961 and attending revolutionary poetry slams. She reports being quite enthralled with the larger city, and it was in the cafés here that she met with her new friends to form the Cadre of Revolutionary Prolongment, which forms the backbone of today's PDLCU.
The group attended Tam-Bôtxal's funeral in April 1962. There is video footage of Txorkulag baring her breasts (in reference to Lady Ka) and, sobbing, reading passages about the strength of Ubu women from Hokz.un's People's History of the Ubu People. It was apparent that she was already formulating her glorious ideas for the People's Dialectic Cult of Succession of Prominent Ubu Females.
She was responsible for keeping alive the revolutionary zeal of the group through the years. With Hokz.un's death in 1968, the Cadre found itself well-prepared. The appointment of No Kapurgol, who wanted no less than reconciliation with the Soviets, led Txorkulag to look toward China for inspiration. She and Atila Numex mobilized squadrons of Grey Guards, who they had spent several years carefully setting up in the secondary schools, to denounce and attack all things Soviet-aligned.
As per Hunia's plan, Kapurgol was shot by six different shooters, unaware of each other's presence, as he stepped out from his limousine in the Cathedral Square to give a speech criticizing the fanaticism of the Grey Guards. Txorkulag stood by in disguise as a nun to witness the momentous event.
During the opening stages of the Civil War she suggested that the Cadre, which had gone underground, stay in the city and conduct urban guerilla warfare. However, issues of practicality led the group, under the leadership of Omonia, to flee for the Caucasus foothills in the west in January 1969. During the "Cold Fucking March" she had herself carried in a palanquin to assure, for the safety of the group, that she could see from a high vantage point.
She made due with life in the caves, feeding on her own spirit of nationalism and a healthy amount of local peasant food. It was here that she acquired her taste for leeks.
When the cities revolted in 1971 she suggested that the group liberate the eastern cities, though Golka led the group ahead to the more immediately accessible Minguk. Nevertheless Num-Poki fell in June and soon the entire country was in the revolutionaries' hands.
Her first action in office was to create the position of Controller of Public Affairs for herself, out of her boundless compassion for the people and a desire to secure her number-two position. Gogit Omonia, newly made the Prime Commander, approved of the position and, appreciating her revolutionary spirit, gave her free rein.
Her next "pet project" was an "upgrade" to Num-Poki, building on the grandeur of 19th-century city planners and the Stalinists by adding more massive buildings. In October began the remodeling of the Num-Poki Kremlin as the gleaming new Cultural Centre for Cultural Culture. Omonia was so pleased with her work that he appointed her as the Centre's first Prime Stewardess.
More so even than Omonia, Txorkulag has shown a propensity building a cult of personality. Her beautiful face is displayed in portraits in public places, her poetry is read over the loudspeakers during break-times in a mellifluous female voice, and her edicts are taken as solemnly, as they ought, as when one hears the spellbinding voice of an archangel, if archangels did exist.
In 1977 Txorkulag furthered her work for the public in this field by declaring herself Mother of the Ubu People.
Commander Omonia has referred to her, reverently, as a "Revolutionary among Revolutionaries," and Minister Golka has referred to her, reverently, as a "poisonous viper waiting to strike."
There is some speculation that WCAFIUW President Hukbur Hulis is her daughter. Certainly, the younger woman is being groomed as her successor, an action which we shall witness with delight as the torch of Revolution is passed, illuminating all along its way.
Poetry
I TARMATO (Into the Valley), 1960.
Though the Russians have launched
The first satellite in the heavens,
We shall bring one down, below in the South.
Into the valley we shall ride.
The huts of the righteous shall be spared
As we demolish their poisonous bureaucracy.
