Месяца два я ходил мимо этого покосившегося привратного столбика на Съездовской линии, практически в створе Большого проспекта, и гадал, когда же он всё-таки рухнет. Ну, сегодня это таки произошло. Пятница 13-е виновата, не иначе.

В дороге Черчен - Урумчи, 13 августа.

Maybe one day I’ll be an honest man
Up till now I’m doing the best I can
Long roads, Long days, of sunrise, to sunset

But your eyes are lustreless
Your facade may glimmer
Your surface may be smooth silk
You’ve been convinced of your own illusions
But your weary eyes unveil a sinner

Кашгар - Хотан, 8 августа.

...And with dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave

  Nomad
  Vagabond
  Call me what you will
