by Aleksandr Mikhailovich Glikberg (1880 - 1932), as Sasha Chyorny

Критику
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE LIT
Когда поэт, описивая даму, начнёт:
,,Я шла по улице. В боко впился корсет``
Здесь я не понимал конечно
прямо что, мол, под дамою скривается поэт.
Я истину тебе по-друшески открою:
поэт мужчина и даже с бородою.
