Poetry is like a bird, it ignores all frontiers

How can the confessor teach/ those who are lost and sick at heart,/ when he himself, among the sinners,/ is worst, and most forsaken?/ It is only a game we play/ with other people's sins./ Besides, everyone knows/ that everyone lies confessing.

"Ты подобрел бы. Ты какой-то злой".

Я добрый был. Недолго это было.
