who need this pathos
who need spilled out
the Bosch-like world
who need
to carry a heap
of non-authors metaphors
muddle
as if words
who write
lovely boy…

кому этот пафос
кому извергать
мир босхоподобен
кому
охапку волочь
метафор без автора
бестолочь
как будто слова
кто написал
милый мальчик…

1998
