Word is akin to second flesh for a human. It's a triunity: soul, body, and word. Which is why only poets are perfect.

Lyova! Tomorrow I’ll wire you money. I think that you’ll be able to come back to Moscow soon, just wait a little longer, it will be safer that way. Of course, I know how boring it is - worse, even - but I beg you to do as I say. See more

I infinitely and easily surrender, when it comes to my soul. I fear that I will not get a ticket for the train, and incidentally, I do not fear at all that this train takes me away from humanity, who… human, of whom… See more

Now I have only one method of gratitude at my disposal: poems. They live on food, lend a cot: I recite poetry, rewrite poetry, write poetry. The soul pays for the body. How I would like to say that poems are uninteresting, and simply, for me to be loved! And to pay for a meal, as a meal!

I'm on the move and writing to you and I don't know now... but there are words here that I cannot write. See more
