Untitled[edit]

Не надо спрашивать меня,
Зачем живут стихи больные.
Я понимаю: лучше было
Иметь запас здоровых слов...
Нельзя спросить - зачем приходят,
Зачем ночные палачи
Из ножен вынули мечи,
И на меня идёт гурьбою,
Зачем столпились у дверей
Недетской памяти моей
Слепые загнанные люди...
Огонь сжирал десятки судеб,
Но разве появился тот,
Кто на себя всё зло возьмёт?
