The author of Clouds in Pants is Mayakovsky.
The 20th century Russian poet Mayakovsky (Владимир Маяковский, 1893-1930), in the turbulent times before and after the October Revolution, used unique poetry to explore and long poems that fit the discourse of the times. , became a dazzling star in Russian poetry during the Silver Age.
Mayakovsky was a man of many talents. When the film art was in its infancy and Chaplin first made his debut, he drew illustrations, edited publications, created plays, directed and directed movies, and also starred in movies. As the main representative poet of Russian Futurism at that time, he was deviant and hoped to start a revolution in poetic language. In 1915, Mayakovsky and the Brickers met. Mayakovsky recited the long poem "Clouds in Pants" (originally titled "The Thirteenth Apostle"), and the couple was attracted by the young poet. The genius is shocking.
Mayakovsky's "Clouds in Pants" (excerpt):
Indulging in the soft thoughts and random thoughts in your mind is like lying on a dirty bed. I tease a fat servant with a piece of cloth dyed red with my own blood; I mock ruthlessly, I am mean and bitter. There is no gray hair in my soul, and there is no trace of mother-in-law in there! A bolt from the blue deafened the world, here I am - a handsome man, twenty-two years old. Gentle people! You perform love on the violin.
The rude man seals love with a beat of the timpani. But you can't turn yourselves over like me, if you can keep your mouth airtight! Come and learn - the thin-shirted woman walking out of the living room, the formal and reserved official wife among the beauties. And she clicked her little mouth slowly, like a cook flipping through cooking secrets.
Do you know - I can go crazy for meat - and change all kinds of patterns like the sky - Do you know - I can be so docile that I can be impeccable, not like a man, but become A cloud in pants! I don’t believe there is such a thing as Nice with all the flowers! I will also sing praises to the tired old man in the sanatorium ward, and to the proverbially abused woman.
