LAUGH (pidgin-version)

They laugh as if they know something. Yes?
They laugh as if they know something. Yes.
They know something?
They know something.

I will not ask how much time will need to arrange with them.

All life.

And there. There -
in last time
you'll hear this laugh.

ДЕЛО 
(pidgin-russian) sorry, it cannot be translated

Здравствуй дело, которое появляется в моем поле зрения. 
Сделаю тебя. 
Источник этого дела меня не интересует. 
Конечный результат меня не интересует. 
Сделаю тебя.

С годами я становлюсь старше. 
А дела меня всё ещё окружают. 
Они пришли ко мне. 
Я их сделаю.

Здравствуй, дело, которое я делаю. 
С годами ты не покидаешь меня. 
Делаешь меня.

Люблю тебя за то, что ты меня делаешь. 
Покоряюсь тебе. 
Люблю тебя, радуюсь тебе, делаю тебя, покоряюсь тебе.

Сделаешь меня.

Здравствуй, дело, которое делает меня, 
а я делаю его. 
Что поделаешь? 
Все сделано так, чтобы мы делали друг друга.

Улыбаюсь от радости и обречённости. 
потому что люблю 
дело, которое я делаю.

Знаю, дело, которое я делаю 
успокоит меня навсегда.

Когда-нибудь. В конце концов. 
Оно успокоит меня навсегда.

PARALLELISM (pidgin-version)

! think untiringly about parallelism of the ways
thousands voices
attract me untiringly
no reflecting the names
fall like a sand

! think untiringly about perpendicularity of the roads
let heart to enter to crossroads
and go on the track
inescapable
low-key
to drink the ice pupils
of ringing and sliding planets
hundreds thousands billions
square kilometers
light years

! think untiringly about parallelism of the worlds

||

ПАРАЛЛЕЛЬНОСТЬ (original russian)

Думаю неустанно о параллельности путей 
манят меня неустанно 
тысячи голосов 
не отражая названий 
падают как песок

Думаю неустанно о перпендикулярности дорог
сердцем войти в перекрестки 
и выйти на след 
неотвратимый 
неброский 
пить ледяные зрачки 
звонких скользящих планет 
сотни тысячи миллиарды 
квадратных 
километров 
световых 
лет

Думаю неустанно о параллельности миров

СКАЗКА / MYTH (pidgin-version)

Every day, waking up in the morning, i see that i am a human.

And i know:

that games with a Myth are noiseless,
that games with a Myth are fearless,
that games with a Myth are successful,
but games with a Myth* are deadly.

And i know, 
that this is punishable,
and even among mine 
no one will understand me,
if i tell,
how joyfully it was to walk
by deep streets of love
and how it threw me out from inside

/not try to stop/

And i'm trying to live
with new skills, 
trying to talk
with a wordless language, 
i try to wake up
in the morning
as a human.

And it lets me. This Myth.

In the morning i wake up and find out with surprise, that i live again.

*In Russian СКАЗКА means something between: fairy tale ~ miracle ~ Myth

ТИШИНА

Хочется тишины?  
Поработай на тишину. 
Возьми тишину. 

Где прячется тишина? 
Все прячется в тишине. 

Вокруг ужасающая тишина. 
Пронзительность тонет в тишине
и поглощается тишиной.

Никто не слышит никого
в этой оглушительной тишине.

---

SILENCE (pidgin-version)

Do you want silence?
Work for silence.
Take the silence.

Where is the silence hiding?
Everything hides in silence.

There is a terrible silence all around.
The penetrating drowns in silence
and is absorbed by silence.

Nobody hears anyone
in this deafening silence.

ВЕТЕР 

Я стояла у подножия холма. 
И заметила, что ветер смотрит на меня. 
Когда я поднималась вверх, мне было все равно, 
только бы остановиться на вершине. 
Я шла, не видя ничего вокруг, 
чтоб больше не звенеть. 

Я встала на вершине, как игла. 
И вдруг увидела окрестные поля, дороги и долины, 
равнины, родники и спины 
людей, идущих вдаль. 
Людей, идущих от меня 
в глубокие бескрайние поля. 

И ветер раздувал мою одежду. 
И нежно заплетался в волосах. 

--- 

WIND (pidgin-version)

I stood at the foot of the hill. 
And noticed that the wind was looking at me. 
While I was going up, I did not care, 
only to stop at the top. 
I moved, not seeing anything around, 
so as not to make noise anymore. 

I stood up on the top like a needle. 
And suddenly saw the surrounding fields, roads and valleys, 
plains, rivers and backs 
of people going far 
from me 
into deep endless fields. 

And wind was blowing my clothes. 
And gently swayed my hair.
