Tired with all these, for restful death
I cry...
Save that, to die, I leave my love alone.
Sonnet LXVI
«I look around and I want to die, in earnest,
a drunkard is the only one who’s honest,
my land is being plundered, I can't like it,
I’d die before all people kick the bucket.
I want to die on hearing idle chatterers.
A Soho graduate lectures on moral matters.
A boor appears innocent and gracious,
and lust for augmentation laughs in our faces.
Those ugly creatures (did you see any?),
I want to die for they are many...
There is my friend among those mates but, really,
deserting him would be unfriendly».
I should have killed myself long, long ago,
but love for you deters me from the action,
and I repeat : «trust passion evermore»,
trust passion!
Long live the saying : «I wish I were dead»!
Love tends to cause a negative reaction;
it is, of course pernicious passion, — yet
trust passion.
Authority will fall. The selfish mind — betray.
The transport routes will be refashioned.
Believe in passion, do not leave me, pray,
trust passion!

Flying sideways the Earth he left,
the East and West were on his left,
the North and South were on his right,
the heartbeat led him in his flight.
It was somebody’s heart which called
from a remote,
unknown world.
He saw what no one could define,
he got it, and he said: «You are divine».
And he dissolved, lost in the Crux of love.
But it was love
that he knew not of.

What's that, flying over you,
ten comes first and one comes last?
Seven, six, five, four, three, two.…
Start? Blast?
9
Bethlehem flies to the rear?
Living feelings turns to dust?
Nine, eight, seven, six, four, three —
Start? Blast?
8
Countdown starts with ten…
Anti-counter's switched on.
Voreman, Pushkin, Budda, Zen.
Has the time of apes begun?
7
Stalin. Peter. Back to front.
Taxi meter starts to count.
There is one year left until
Russia's christened at its will.
6
Someone in «The Cloud In Pants»
is old fashioned, and he counts:
«Eight, nine, ten». Do count it right:
«Nine, eight, seven». Done in flight.
5
Building shrines, old Greeks were smart.
Nietzsche says: «In God we trust!»
Which of us involves a start?
Which of us involves a blast?
4
Hatha-Yoga. Drugs for pain..
There's no mail at all again.
Only «Goethe-Eckermann»
And «Astafyev-Eidelmann»
3
Like a horror up to heaven
the word «If» is flying past.
Countdown: nine, eight, seven,
six, five, four, three. Start? Or blast?
2
Sorry for us stupid wits,
Time of video clips and pics.
Sorry for the little kids
aged ten, nine, eight, seven, six.
1
We release what they have banned,
like «Zhivago», thrilling me.
Are there many names at hand?
Nine…eight… seven…five… four… three…
0
Slowly, in the storm of fight
freedom target moves along
like a road post on the right :
«9», «8», «7» and so on.
1
Why do we have Kitty, Levin,
Jesus Christ, Marx, Budda-zen?
Countdown: nine, eight, seven…
Ends with zero, starts with ten…

I love You so. I love You when
I feel Your back, Your voice, Your shoulder,
You shroud me with Your whole body
like waterfall or poring rain!
I love to be inside Your fate,
Your doubts and Your perturbation,
I wish Your faint blood circulation
were open, like a green garden gate.
Blessed be the fruit of good intent,
Your drowning bosom, and your lenience!
I've chosen You out of millions
just for that reason, dear friend.
Like leaves of bushes, thin and fine,
I feel Your lungs pulsate and shiver.
I hear Your entrails, Your liver,
You are all pure and divine!
Why has life taken such a course?
I only want when days break out
to see a glass, a hand stretched out
marked with a blue vein of Yours.
