Artful Monks

Денис Матвеевъ

It's beautiful eve today
Don't be a stray...
"You have no cash to pay?
How could you enjoy your stay???
You had time yesterday"
So, they don't like any delay.
Sometimes when deals were taking back
We gave them back a special pack:
A pack of bullets, pack of oil
And powder, to reduce recoil.
      *   *   *
From time to time before a day
We "Holy Bible" have to pray.
It's also when we sit on ground
The every greeter counts a pound.
Like mice we're working and with no sound
That's why we soon could hear too loud.
One day man came to our ihn
And ordered our strongest gin.
"We haven't any"-said barman.
"I have to hurry" he's gone and run.
If your time will not be safe
We ought to be in deepest graves.
And then idea flew away,
It meaned that we had lost the key.
      *   *   *
But if you stand, not hurrying back,
The rain will start - main lack.
And when the wind, which brings a cloud,
Meaned rainy weather starts - no doubt.
So then it turned to be a childish play
An old magician had come to slay
The raining cloud and went away.
      *   *   * 
In many countries it caused the flood,
It seemed to be - his dad was dead.
