A village in my dream.
Still are living joyful
My unhappy friends.
***
Is it cash on hand?
It’s droughty days
And a crumpled life.
***
Say, how keeps his soul,
Stupid man like me,
In the clever world?
***
Spring comes every year
With the same cloth –
As poor as me.
***
A poet shows himself insane,
Of the world avenges in vain:
“You are a coin in merchant’s hand,
Sliding multicolored stand.
I am a winged stubborn lie, -
A fool from the seventh sky.
