power is power
and elsewhere, for the most part
Soviet or Estonian
we live as we can
and as we know how

I'm thinking that the bathroom
the whole place
and life along with it
is as empty as empty can be
without your toothbrush

but not who is i.e. was
finance minister that time
when you bought your own brush
a budding wind howls, anyway

boring sand and an empty expanse
are engraved
on all the world's coins
and our face is in the foreground
