Институтка писала стихи
И от этого страстно кричала.
Индульгировались грехи —
Не ебало мужское начало.
И так томно до дна истязалась,
Разливая стакан по полочкам,
А Моне доставал портмоне,
И огурчик, и драпировочку.

This poem is about a woman who chooses not love, but language. She suffers not from a man, but from an inner fire. The “institute girl” is no naive character — she’s a poetess of pain. The man with his wallet, his cucumber, his props — he’s just a backdrop. The real drama unfolds within her. And that’s real. Being yourself is suffering, writing, and not asking for permission.
