The Muse is Awake

I would like you to play your Balalaika, now

I think I will shave my head
cross my legs
and think my hormones away

I am no longer a twenty three year old
and I've never had, dear Vladimir, a backbone flute,
such as yours

I am more like the little Octaroon, Pushkin,
getting shot by love
and taking two days to die

at least, he grazed his opponent
