Of course, this collection is not an attempt to reach the world fame of Omar Khayyam or the popularity of Igor Guberman among our compatriots. It’s just that the author’s consciousness is structured in such a way that it immediately tries to rhyme every thought that seems interesting - from philosophical reflections to the grotesque and an anecdote. And sometimes this is more difficult than spreading out words over several stanzas... After all, it is necessary to concentrate the thought in a condensed form, not only without losing anything of the meaning, but, if possible, enriching it with figurative comparison. Although it happens that you can’t do without eight lines. And as illustrations – several naive author’s drawings.
