🌿 Texts translations will be attached in the comments. Here is Мужичек 3.0 (Little man 3.0):
"Tuk-Tuk, Tak-Tak,
the little heart is pumping blood.
If I won't drink a coffee in the morning,
I won't become a little man,
Tu-tu-tuk, ta-ta-tak,
Routine, I pray for you, don't let the chaos (*change the system settings*).
I'm programmed to perform monotonous work, turn off manual control (*autopilot*),
Read the son's emotions - (*impossible to perform*),
turn on the function "call the child worthless".
"Shut up, I know better" (*mode activated*).
"Comparison with the peers" (*torment and mute the child*).
Turn off the autopilot, say, "Thank God", I raised business in 00s, thanks to an octopus."
Шепоче ((One) Wispers)
All that I will not see does not bother me anymore
All that I did not feel myself
The characters in the book already felt for me
About everything that will escape from me, like a curtain on the cornice
I won't regret it...
Everything is so... familiar in this world
It's like I've been here a million times to myself
And a million times I will... after myself... or maybe not
But I still won't regret it
Every second that I did not feel
I'm guilty of...
But I don't know who
To the one who is in the neurons of every living thing
Or a neural network with which parity is impossible
And the mirror is now like a Xenos portrait
Or just a virtual avatar?
My most ancient gene is avalanched with stones
What forces to symbiosis with the social transformed into
Neutrality...
All that I will not see does not bother me anymore
I am concerned about: purity of relations, words, thoughts
And this physical pain is no longer so disturbing
My main surf is making a distant noise
My half-moon, pink muse
Whisper...
