Вечная весна

Eternal Spring

Under the hundred year old piles of biblical jokes, lustful Orthodox believers and hungry Catholics, abandoned trenches and burning ant hills
Eternal spring in solitary confinement.
 
Under the drowned crowds, houses, squares, overpopulated deserts,
stinky churches, melting cocks and hungry vaginas
Eternal spring in solitary confinement
 
Through escapes into the mirror1, elaborate vocabularies, little blasphemous thoughts and money that hasn’t been spent on booze, thoroughly manured2 graveyards and gardens,
Eternal spring in solitary confinement
 
A desperate
predatory
screeching flock of sparrows sings within me
 
Hundreds of years of snowdrifts, Lazaruses, pithecantropuses3, poems, medicine, bread and circuses4, mandatory healing procedures underground for the hunched and crooked-
Eternal spring in solitary confinement
 
A desperate
predatory
screeching flock of sparrows sings within me
 
  • 1. this could be referring to mirroring, which is when one person copies another's body language, words, and facial expressions during a conversation. the reason "escape" is used is because this gives you an escape from showing your true personality, and can be used to manipulate people. (not my interpretation, it's from the blog "Скрытый смысл песен и фильмов")
  • 2. fertilized using animal feces
  • 3. an extinct species between an ape and a human
  • 4. an expression referring to pleasure-seeking
