Mykyta Ryzhykh

Before-rain before-fear

Mykyta Ryzhykh

Before-rain before-fear more than the skill before the heart Anabioses of lame handwriting in the notebook of phobias Involuntarily the rituals of movements turn into a prayer book of memories The constant of terrorist attacks of heart contractions Who will not wake up in the morning next time? To whom did you extend your logos last night? Multibillion-dollar humanity Eons of yawning Indifferent postcards of tears during the military occupation

a stone is a ruin

Mykyta Ryzhykh

a stone is a ruin again a stone is only a ruin

Revenge of madness

Mykyta Ryzhykh

Revenge of madness Little gophers of construction in the palm of hopes

Guns screamed The end of all roads We swam out to drown The only prospect is waiting
