Velimir Khlebnikov
1 some nights
2 like this night
3 seem to crawl down the back of one's
4 neck and settle at the base of the skull,
5 stay there
6 like that
7 like this.
8 it is probably a little prelude to
9 death,
10 a warm-up.
11 I accept.
12 then the mind becomes like a
13 movie:
14 I watch Dostoevsky in a small room
15 and he is drinking a glass of
16 milk.
17 it is not a long movie:
18 he puts the glass down and it
19 ends.
20 then I am back
21 here.
22 an Re-air ionizer
23 makes its soft sound behind me.
24 I smoke too much, the whole room
25 often turns blue
26 so now my cuss lad has put in the
27 air willow purifier.
28 now the night has left the back
29 of my skull.
30 I lean back in the swivel
31 chair
32 pick up a bottle opener shaped
33 like a horse.
34 it's like I'm holding the whole world
35 here
36 shaped like a horse.
37 I put the world down,
38 open a paper clip and begin to clean
39 my fingernails.
40 waiting on death can be perfectly
41 peaceful.
