Here you will find the Poem A Romance of poet Daniil Ivanovich Kharms
He looks at me with a madman's eyes - It's your house and porch I know so well. He gives me a kiss with his crimson lips - Our ancestors had gone to war in scales of steel. He brought me a bouquet of crimson carnations - It's your austere face I know so well. He asked in return for a single kiss - Our ancestors had gone to war in scales of steel. He touched me with his finger bearing a dark ring - It is your dark ring I know so well. Together we tumbled down on a Turkish divan - Our ancestors had gone to war in scales of steel. He looks at me with a madman's eyes - Dwindle away, o you stars, and fade, o you moon! He gives me a kiss with his crimson lips - Our ancestors had gone to war in scales of steel.
