Welcome to a masterpiece of Modern Russian poetry! These poems represent the ancient version of ABC book (i.e., "Glagolitic alphabet", also referred to as 'betony" and "bloomers") that laid foundation for the modern phonetic alphabet. It has been reformed many times for political & religious purposes, which did not only decrease people's energy and precision in communication, but also killed the imagery of letters, words, and grammatical structures. The author stresses the regression of human nature, comparing the wisdom-related old ABC book with modern social phenomena primitively expressed by the modern phonetic alphabet.
