FROM THE LIFE Plumber
In the pipe hot water
Currently flowing to and fro ...
From the folk poem
"Adapter 3 / 4 5 / 12"
Cold winter in the city. Early in the dark. Drifting snow
quickly sweeps meandering footprints leading from all cracks to
a warm basement. Only the most inveterate male plumbers are
finding there way.
Break through the barbed darkness, open the creaky
the door to the rough wall and look inside ...
Polutorasvechovaya lamp dimly illuminates the small sacs of
human space. Warm and cozy comfortable curved pipe, polished
and desire. Experienced Plumbers are able to doze for hours at a
tube, hugging her special muscles and enjoying exposure to hot
water.
They sit one by one, at a distance of about 83 centimeters,
preserving pesky newcomers predatory guttural screams, and
sometimes well-aimed clicks wrench. Passes at least 20 years
before than young plumber to learn to appreciate the correct
distance and will find its place on the tube.
Plumbers sit wearily dropping along the torso to the knees
drawn sweaty hairy hands, scratch wrenches oiled back comrades
and motionless, like eagles, looking at the bulb.
Sometimes one of the most respected artists starting with
anguish stir former when tubes were thicker, the water - hot
and spanners smeared with thick delicious grease. And veterans
shake their gray heads and groaning for hours, remembering
grimaces and jumps youth.

What could be better
All my life I grow grain.
Bread! How much goodness in it is embedded. Soft,
warm. What could be better than bread? Bread and frames?
What could be better than fresh bread, Rama and Joni
Walker?
Perhaps the only bread, Rama, Johnnie Walker, Lee Cooper
and Toyota!
A Caterpillar? No, to hell with Caterpillar. The same
tractor.
Better can only be Johnnie Walker, Toyota, Versace, Visa and
Sunset Beach! A Bread? .. And the bread?
Yes, sometimes recall a distant homeland and want to
lie in the endless corn under the failed "Belarus" after a
glass of vodka without snacks and dream of a distant,
unattainable abroad.
