| The moon's flawed face rises from behind the hills
|
| In the forest, a chilled faun plays on a nozzle
|
| Drunk in snot accountant Ivanov
|
| He wanders through the forest to his flying saucer.
|
| He is not an accountant - no. |
| He is an alien guest.
|
| Stuck forever among Russian villages.
|
| He crashed the spaceship, and here he had to
|
| Seriously master the most necessary of the professions.
|
| On the collective farm "The Way of Dawn" there is no more important man
|
| On the collective farm he has a plot and a domino,
|
| Zhiguli car, chicken coop, six pigs,
|
| Wife is a veterinarian and other cattle.
|
| What more could you want? |
| It would seem, live!
|
| Work, have fun, develop culturally,
|
| Read the Decameron, watch the colored tiwi,
|
| And then hit the regional drama theater for the weekend.
|
| But no, an alien mind gnaws at melancholy. The abundance of livestock does not please, does not warm.
|
| Art and tiwi do not excite thoughts
|
| Accountant Ivanov drinks vodka and goes berserk.
|
| Like a hungry wolf he is in the midnight sky
|
| Gives sometimes dreary peepers
|
| And taking a glass, then another, he goes
|
| To a flying saucer hidden in the forest.
|
| Covered from eyes by branches and earth
|
| The remains of the ship rest in a ravine
|
| Where did our hero once fall from the stars,
|
| Breaking the back of his space horse.
|
| And Ivanov cries, and howls and growls
|
| Kicking the cursed planet with my boot
|
| And looking at him the universe is silent...
|
| Only a lone faun plays quietly somewhere. |
