Gul zatikh. Ja vyshel na podmostki
Language: Russian (Русский)
Gul zatikh. Ja vyshel na podmostki. Prislonjas' k dvernomu kosjaku, Ja lovlju v daljokom otgoloske, Chto sluchitsja na mojem veku. Na menja nastavlen sumrak nochi Tysjach'ju binoklej na osi. Jesli tol'ko mozhno, Avva Otche, Chashu `etu mimo pronesi. Ja ljublju tvoj zamysel uprjamyj I igrat' soglasen `etu rol'. No sejchas idjot drugaja drama, I na `etot raz menja uvol'. No produman rasporjadok dejstvij, I neotvratim konec puti. Ja odin, vsjo tonet v farisejstve. Zhizn' prozhit' — ne pole perejti.
