“A monster inhabits mountain’s high …” by Velimir Khlebnikov 🇷🇺 (9 Nov 188528 Jun 1922)
Translated from the Russian by & Paul Schmidt
A monster inhabits mountain’s high
And has a terrifying bottom.
It’s grabbed a girl carrying a pot
And flashes her a comely smile.
And she is ready to drop just like
a fruit in his paws like hairy branches.
The monster is as a monster looks.
Self-satisfied it scratches its haunches.
