In search of the sense
Leonid Rozumenko 1961 (Kyiv)
You could find places like Donald Trump
Or like a poor orphan,
But life is always a quirky jump
From the womb into the coffin.
Sometimes a scientific spasm
Keeps a surprise for you –
When you may peep in the chasm
The abyss may peep in you.
My sober mind in cough
Try to accept this bowl.
And where from came this laugh
Of non-existed soul?
The beautiful icehouse
Melts with the speed of glance.
And Universe is Chaos
Where only Love has sense!
As a little drop, I’ll fall in Nothing
And Nature hugs me as a Mother.
I’ll give her a kiss before cross passing
And we’ll accept the true each other.
