I Fell

I fell into a trench the way Yesenin fell onto hay,
Got tangled in it the way Mayakovsky got tangled in the system.
Who says digging a trench is nothing?
You try climbing back up from there.

Even if you're here for someone else's sin —
Someone's, it doesn't matter — it's yours now.
Only God forgives everything; I'm no stranger to Him.
…And if He doesn't forgive — well, it's not the first time.
The earth will take us all — everyone who fell headlong.
