This book is the first volume of a collection of poems and song lyrics written by the Author over 50 years. The poems are grouped into four topics: 1 – humor, fables and parodies; 2 – about animals; 3 – about religion and mysticism; 5 – about love. The poems were written in different years - both during the USSR, and in the “gangster 90s” and later. So some words and expressions may seem inappropriate or overly pathetic to a modern reader, and jokes may seem outdated. But that’s exactly what they said and thought then. Some poems contain obscene language, although the Author tried not to abuse it. In total, the first volume contains 184 texts, some of which are very long. The author hopes that none of the texts will cause boredom to the reader. Contains obscene language.
