The Gorko Gazette

snow for no one
iron chains of air burst in the cold

we breathe in the cold like prisoners
dying in chains

---

heavenly raisins are sweet like a bag of bones
insects make a mistake when they are born
boots play the flute of the soul

leaves crunch under the soles
corpses under the soles of the cemetery crunch

flowers should be given only to the living
flowers outside
flowers insidе
flowers of lies

the courage to be afraid when a stranger with the face of death crosses the road
my cat taught me this

sometimes I would like to see in the dark so as not to see the darkness
most of all I would like to be a mystery in the form of a butterfly

but for now I trample the temple of grass with dry lips
ripe eggs balls overflowing sunlight
a boy with a juicy ass walks down the street

аnd the street gets narrower and narrower

Paragraph of the body cell
Breasts adorned with grape crowns to replace nipples
Mens balls stole plums
Before hunger refresh your eyes
In the middle of the night it transforms into a child and wets breasts in a bowl of milk

---

Ytteria sweets.
It will be correct to cheat with you, not on you.

---

the comet has no other
home
than the universe

---

someone has a war outside their window
and
someone has no windows

the search for balance
ended with an explosion

I’m missing one finger
Since childhood I didn’t understand why toys have so many fingers

I only have five fingers
And I also dream about foot fetish

I have mechanical implants instead of legs
Strangers on the streets point six fingers in my face

The birds don’t sing and all the voices are locked in cages
The worms in my body pretend that I no longer exist

---

I would like to be the feathered bird of poetry
I would like to be a proud tree and endure everything in silence
I wouldn’t like to have human skin
It is unbearably painful to feel the blade on fkng neck and shave off fkng khaki
