To Joseph Brodsky Poem by Liza Sud

To Joseph Brodsky



When you received the Nobel Prize,
You looked as if you handed it.
And I thought then, that poets love
All people no regard of seat.


Such are the saints - as if there were
people much better than themselves.
So paradoxical it goes.
Lord in humility - exalts.
