by Daniil Ivanovich Kharms (1905 - 1942)

Koški
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Odnaždy po dorožke
JA šel k sebe domoj.
Smotrju i vižu: koški
Sidjat ko mne spinoj.

JA kriknul: — Ėj, vy, koški!
Pojdemte-ka so mnoj,
Pojdemte po dorožke,
Pojdemte-ka domoj.

Skorej pojdemte, koški,
A ja vam na obed
Iz luka i kartoški
Ustroju vinegret.

— Ach, net! — skazali koški.-
Ostanemsja my tut!
Uselis' na dorožke
I dal'še ne idut.
