Based on the theory of the author’s outsideness of M. Bakhtin, the author of the article studies the syntactic influence of the poetics of Arseny Tarkovsky on the poetics of Yuri Kazarin through the analysis of an actively semantized boundary. Kazarin both accepts the influence of Tarkovsky and opposes it, especially at the syntactic level. Of the obvious differences in their lyrics, Yuri Kazarin’s interest in the enjambement, reduced in Arseny Tarkovsky, comes to the fore. If in Tarkovsky the boundary of the verse and syntactic series is not overloaded and the intensification of the gap in this boundary can serve as a signal for the finale of the poem, then in Kazarin the load on the boundary appears already at the beginning of the poem. For Tarkovsky, the actively semantized boundary is rather a minus device, the poet often demonstrates the power of the lexical coloring of the word in the middle of the verse. Kazarin practices the emphasis on the clause, experimenting with changing rhyme, while Tarkovsky uses rhyme as a discrete means of active text semantization.
