Nikolay Alekseyevich Zabolotsky (Russian: Никола́й Алексе́евич Заболо́цкий; May 7, 1903 – October 14, 1958) was a prominent Soviet and Russian poet and translator.
Nikolay Zabolotsky was a Russian poet who was a member of a Futurist group of writers known as “Oberiu”. These were men who dabbled in the avant-garde and the absurd in their writings, often seeking to banish the old style of literature to history in favour of themes that embraced the ever-increasing industrialisation in their country.
Nikolai Zabolotsky (1903-1958) was one of the great poets of twentieth-century Russia. As the last link in the Russian Futurist tradition and the first poet to come of age in the Soviet period, Zabolotsky wrote both experimental and classical poetry.

Nikolai Zabolotsky. My poems (5) Titles list. The Horse's Face. Animals don't sleep. In the dark after nightfall. They stand over the world like a stone wall. The cow's sloping head. Rustles its smooth horns in the straw. Its stony brow bears down. Dividing ancient cheekbones, And inarticulate eyes. Look around with effort.

The peculiarity of Zabolotsky's grotesques consists in that the most common, the most simple things of the world of reality assume night- marish outlines and shapes.
