Hey, you!
Heaven!
Off with your hat!
I am coming! Not a sound. The universe sleeps,
its huge paw curled
upon a star-infested ear.

Additional quotes by Vladimir Mayakovsky

Love for us is no paradise of arbors —
to us love tells us, humming, that the stalled motor of the heart
has started to work again.

On the pavement
of my trampled soul
the steps of madmen
weave the prints of rude crude words.

Tramp squares with rebellious treading!
Up heads! As proud peaks be seen!
In the second flood we are spreading
Every city on earth will be clean.

Hey, you! Heaven! Off with your hat! I am coming! Not a sound. The universe sleeps, its huge paw curled upon a star-infested ear. - Vladimir Mayakovsky
