ZA CHTO?

Za chto lyubit' vas, nenaglyadnye? -
Za nagotu-lish'-pustotu
I neprikayannost' vseyadnosti,
Za izvrashennuyu mechtu?

Poryvy strasti shepchut nizmennost',
Glaza - predatel'stvom goryat,
Igra v lyubov', nadryv i prizrachnost',
ZHelanii primitivnyh - ad.

Vse eto proideno, v krik s'edeno -
Vne primitiva, no - spolna.
Intelligentny sobesedniki...
Ostalas' nedo-grust' odna.

Smolkaet ispoved' za vshlipami
Noch' rastvoryayushego "chto-zh" -
Proshu istoriyu zabytuyu
Ostanovit' dushi grabezh...

Za chto tsenit' vas nezabvennye? -
Za prigovor tomu, kem byl,
I blizost' s lezviyami-stenami? -
Za to, chto vovremya - ostyl...
Mangeim-Leiptsig
