The KGB Informer

deadly honest with my colleagues

I am completely reserved with friends and family

on whom I have to report weekly

to make ends meet


Svetlana is not aware that we belong to different castes


if her caste comes to power

my and my colleagues' names

will be published in sizeable books

and be accessible in all the bookshops and libraries of the country


then, we are finished

as even prostitutes will refuse to kiss us

The Gleam of Hope

night

seeds of light

in the soil

don't you spoil

don't you fear

all is clear

love is bright

see the light

While She's Asleep

you

are sitting

amidst the white kitchen

chewing grapes

drinking moonshine

reading

THE BOOK IS HUGE

paragraph

sip

bite

chew chew chew

digest

think

and

at the crack of Dawn

you will realize

The Soft Prison

all is well in the madhouse

as far as i can see

the russian flag is outside the window

and nobody's in a hurry

a flash brighter than the sun

won't make me sane

and my life has a quality of a dream
