Dog. |
All that is - teeth and loyalty,
|
But if poverty gets into the house, you won't bite
|
You only whine quietly, and even loudly you won’t get anywhere. |
Lack of money.
|
Eat less and less. |
Sleep. |
Do you remember about
|
That once was their neighbor, and not an extra mouth
|
There, in this past rudely caressed
|
You answered them with joyful barks.
|
Cursing fate with swearing streams
|
Like guards are attached to the TV screen
|
husband and wife unemployed
|
The elevator doesn't work. |
The children are hungry.
|
Cold. |
Chilly. |
Carrying around in rags
|
Cold and dead order at home
|
Wash the floors create imaginary comfort
|
Native. |
Favorite. |
cute
|
Evil Apartments are like hornet's nests
|
Chasing messengers to empty stores
|
Hucksters and demons roam the streets
|
Everyone here is under the pressure of the Great Depression.
|
Sessions, congresses, assemblies
|
Sheep bleat in the news and in the press
|
They pour water into their ears in the form of weighty arguments,
|
And under the cover of night, people dig in the waste.
|
Do you feel fear from a change of attitude
|
He angrily clings the leash to the collar
|
Shame and tension are seen in his movements
|
So clearly speaking about a firmly made decision.
|
Having told his wife something on the go, he hurries to get dressed
|
And the claws softly click on the endless stairs
|
The cold sun falsely licks the street
|
He minces stupidly, trying not to slip.
|
So you want to piss, but he stubbornly drags you
|
Takes you further away from home, nothing else
|
I so want to stay, but you have become a hindrance to them
|
He hastily tied you up, got on the bus and left.
|
Dog. |
All there is is teeth and pride
|
Now you tear your muzzle to shreds in the battles for the bone
|
Huge mafia watchdogs control the scum
|
You are driven to them by the dream of eating your fill.
|
Damp. |
Cold. |
Dirty.
|
Gray rats spread the disease.
|
Slums, gates, construction sites, arches
|
Homeless dogs are not taken to zoos.
|
In an abandoned area of industrial warehouses
|
From superfluous glances you sleep hidden
|
Do you see in a dream or bones and meat
|
Or eyes, nose, lips and hair
|
A familiar voice is calling you to eat
|
You press your ears, obediently wag your tail
|
House. |
No fleas, no scabs.
|
Stop. |
Everything is too simple
|
On the outskirts, checkpoints blocked exits
|
Someone in charge spoke, gunshots rang out
|
The blue sky is covered with aviation
|
This is an intervention. |
Power action
|
The city fell victim to the greedy heat of the blast furnace
|
Believing in the memory of the nose, the dog rushed to the house
|
Jumped into the door opened by a disheveled beast
|
Flew down the stairs past the abandoned bags
|
He fought at the door, gnawed at the upholstery as if from the pain of a howl,
|
And then covered the house with a fiery wave
|
You ran after them along the road to eternity
|
Dog. |
All you have is teeth and loyalty. |
