Дрызг и брызг [Dryzg i bryzg] [English translation]

The autumn rushed into the splish and splash with her long awaited warmth

It’s warm and laughable in the shade under the birch tree

Ah, it would be great to unleash that annoying tongue

And keep silent into a rag.1

To see off the boring Tuesdays

Capriciously remember the vast fields

Metaphysical karbovans2 and midnights of watermelons

Brown kitties and white doggies

A train’s intestine

West-Berlinian matches.

My face aches from a rubbery smile.

Something sour is trickling on the glass-

Maybe it’s judgement,

Or maybe a tear.

Supreme generals are expressing volcanic confusion.

All the same, my jawbone aches from a rubbery smile.

Thunder struck. My glasses fogged up.

My poor boots got torn.

It’s all just nonsense!

Just everyday life.

It’s pretentious.

And there'll be a fathom on my shoulders3

And an ass with a handle 4and a vigorous flea5

And also notorious lies

About how I splish and splash got poisoned by a crooked, cursed smirk.

A strained little smirk.

.............................

If one day

Suddenly

I stop appearing at all

In the commendantal and testamental plate of your righteous dreams, know-

Uncatchable avengers6 have caught up to me.
