| Because the art of poetry requires words
|
| I am one of the deaf, bald, sullen ambassadors
|
| Second-rate power that has contacted this one -
|
| Not wanting to force my own brain,
|
| Giving clothes to myself, I go down to the kiosk
|
| For the evening paper.
|
| The wind drives the leaves. |
| Old light bulbs dim glow
|
| In these sad lands, whose epigraph is the victory of mirrors,
|
| With the assistance of puddles, it generates the effect of abundance.
|
| Even thieves steal an orange by scraping the amalgam.
|
| However, the feeling with which you look at yourself -
|
| I forgot this feeling.
|
| In these sad places, everything is designed for the winter: dreams,
|
| The walls of prisons, coats, toilets of brides - whites
|
| New Year, drinks, second hands.
|
| Sparrow jackets and dirt according to the number of alkalis;
|
| Puritan manners. |
| Linen. |
| And in the hands of violinists -
|
| Wooden heaters.
|
| This region is immovable. |
| Introducing the volume of gross
|
| Cast iron and lead, shake your head stunned,
|
| Remember the old power on bayonets and Cossack whips.
|
| But the eagles land like a magnet on the iron mixture.
|
| Even wicker chairs are held here
|
| On bolts and nuts.
|
| To live in the era of achievements, having an exalted disposition,
|
| Unfortunately, it's difficult. |
| Beauty dress up,
|
| You see what you were looking for, not new marvelous divas.
|
| And it’s not that Lobachevsky is firmly observed here,
|
| But the expanded world must narrow somewhere, and here -
|
| This is where perspective ends.
|
| Whether the map of Europe was stolen by agents of the authorities,
|
| Or five sixths of the remaining parts in the world
|
| Far too far. |
| Is it some good fairy?
|
| It tells fortunes over me, but I can’t run away from here.
|
| I pour Cahors for myself - do not shout to the servant -
|
| Let me scratch the cat...
|
| Either a bullet in the temple, as if in the place of an error with a finger,
|
| Whether to pull from here across the sea with the new Christ.
|
| Yes, and how not to mix with drunken eyes, stunned by the frost,
|
| A locomotive with a ship - you still won’t burn with shame:
|
| Like a boat on the water, it will not leave a trace on the rails
|
| Steam locomotive wheel.
|
| What do they write in the newspapers in the section "From the courtroom"?
|
| The sentence has been carried out. |
| Looking here
|
| The layman sees through tin-rimmed glasses,
|
| How a man lies face down against a brick wall;
|
| But he doesn't sleep. |
| For disdain cumpol dreams
|
| Perforated right.
|
| The vigilance of this era is rooted in those
|
| Times, unable in their general blindness
|
| Distinguish those who fell out of the cradles from the fallen cradles.
|
| The white-eyed monster does not want to look beyond death.
|
| It's a pity, the saucers are full, but there is no one to turn the table with,
|
| To ask you, Rurik.
|
| The vigilance of these times is the vigilance to the things of a dead end.
|
| It is not fitting for the tree to spread the mind yet,
|
| But spitting on the wall. |
| And do not wake up the prince - a dinosaur.
|
| For the last line, eh, do not snatch a feather from a bird.
|
| The innocent head of all and affairs is something to wait for an ax
|
| Yes, green laurel. |
