Young POET
Pale young man with burning eyes,
I now give you three of the covenant:
First accept: do not live by this,
Only the future - the area of ??the poet.
Remember the second: no one sympathizes,
Himself myself to love without limit.
Third Save: worship art
Only him bezrazdumno aimlessly.
Pale young man with a look embarrassed!
If you accept my three covenants,
Silently pada I defeated a fighter,
Knowing that the world will leave a poet.

Poet
You should be proud, as an ensign;
You have to be sharp as a sword;
As Dante, underground flame
Should your cheeks burn.

Just be cool witness
All letting his gaze.
Let it be your virtue -
Willingness to enter into the fire.

Perhaps everything in life is only a means
For bright melodious verses,
And you with carefree childhood
Look for a combination of words.

In moments of love hugs
Prinevol themselves to dispassion,
And in the hour of merciless crucifixes
Glorify frantic pain.

In dreams the morning and evening in the abyss
Catch that whisper to you Rock,
And remember: from century of thorns
Poet coveted crown!
