MANY COSSACKS
Their first scream darkened and covered all of us in invisible silence. The best singers create the novelties. Chests are shaken. A punch is raised to its greatest strength. Along with the silent assumptions of pain that seized others. They have not experienced any common needs, deprivations and the nonsense. The song is their most beautiful cry A chivalry of impeachment, and the manifestation of the art of life. ... Strings of larynx. And the ears' tympans .... My soul is mistaken. Despite that it was so alive during this encounter.
