крылом.
Виргинский лес
Когда вдали остались наши братья
И горный склон, точимый темнотой,
Нам распахнул холодные объятья
Виргинский лес, огромный и пустой.
В бездонном одиночестве под древом,
В недобрый час попробуй разберись,
Что скрыто за ритмическим напевом
Мачт, здравым смыслом устремлённых ввысь.
Минув провалы, топи и коренья
Низины той, я ясно ощутил
То смутное, неясное томленье,
Что ясной мысли прибавляет сил.
Как червячок, нацеленный к обеду
Сидящего в берлоге барсука,
Учитель мой сейчас спешил по следу
Идущего вперёд ученика.
Я глаз вручил мельканиям и дырам,
Мне в форме веток чудился намёк
На паука, чья сеть царит над миром
И бренных жизней умаляет срок.
Он лил слова, я знал, что эта страстность —
Ответ на страх, страх божеский, но я,
Я краем сердца чувствовал опасность
В отсутствии животных и жилья…
Когда вдали остались наши братья
И горный склон, точимый темнотой,
Нам распахнул холодные объятья
Виргинский лес, огромный и пустой.

Сенегал
В диком жарком Сенегале
Каннибалы, как грачи,
Меня
