“The bowl is banished from the long tables …” by Velimir Khlebnikov

“The bowl is banished from the long tables …” by Velimir Khlebnikov 🇷🇺 (9 Nov 1885 – 28 Jun 1922)

Translated from the Russian by & Paul Schmidt

The bowl is banished from the long tables—

someone has drunk the liquor of the gods.

Divine wine is a beast-feast also—

the oxen raise their blue-gray horns.
