Unreal Dreams

Adolf P. Shvedchikov – TRANSCEND Media Service
How long I’ve dreamed,
Is it possible to take its normal course,
So that the gardens can blossom,
So that the bird’s scent does not stop,
To make people laugh in the parks,
To circumnavigate the carousel,
To make the roses bright alley,
To sleep peacefully?
I’m tired reading the morning press,
All life is again in the power of stress,
There is a new squall of war,
The next we are waiting for the collapse?
Do not defeat the terror with a whip,
And by the twenty-first century
The world smarter, alas, did not!
