"Happiness"
Should you chase "happiness" too blindly,
You'll awake one day, unkindly,
Trapped in snares that hold you fast—
Fools are steered by beasts amassed.
They will ride, with sweet deception,
Promising joy and pure perfection.
When the feast divides, there's naught—
Few can grasp what's truly wrought.
Since our childhood, minds are tainted:
"World is bright and fine," it's painted.
Yet, to find that fabled treasure
Amidst misfortunes is the measure.
Woes are crafted, all contrived—
Madmen fail to see they've thrived.
"Happiness" within them lies,
Sharpened stones to test the wise.
For so few will truly mature;
This harsh truth remains obscure.
Look around, stare close and see—
Immaturity's vast sea.
In Russian:
"Счастье"
Чаще "счастьем" озаботься —
Не заметишь, как очнёшься
В деградации силках.
Твари сплошь на дураках
Ездят, "счастье" обещая
При разделе каравая.
Что итог делёжки дырка,
Знает мало кто — промывка
Мозга с детства происходит:
Мир нормальный, умный, вроде,
И осталось только "счастье"
Отыскать среди Ненастий.
Все искусственны _Невзгоды —
То не знают сумасброды.
"Счастье" в _них как оселок,
И на очень долгий срок,
Ведь ВЗРОСЛЕЮТ единицы.
И такой расклад не мнится:
Погляди в упор вокруг —
Тьмище недорослей, друг.
