The Donkey's Path
A donkey bound by blinders
Cannot find his way alone.
Only carrots hung as markers
Guide him where he's meant to roam.
Blinders, donkey, dangling carrot—
Tiny world, its narrow track.
And the road to Hell inherits
All delight the carrot lacks.
Half your life, the blinders pressing,
Then you chase the bait ahead.
Through the crowd, no end to guessing—
Hooves will follow where they're led.
In Russian:
Путь осла
Ослик после шор не может
Никуда один дойти.
Лишь морковка в том поможет —
Вехами на полпути.
Ослик, шоры и морковка —
Суть мирка. Дорога в Ад
Самой главной. Без сноровки
В Ад дойдёшь, морковке рад.
Половина жизДни шоры
Примеряешь, а затем
За морковкой чрез заторы —
Нет важней копытным тем.
