"War and Peace" — "War and the World") is a poem by Vladimir Mayakovsky, written in 1915/1916. A completely separate edition was published in the publishing house "Parus" in St. Petersburg in 1917. In order to convey to the reader his musical associations with some of the problems posed, in addition to words, the poet often uses notes (for example, the Argentine tango). They occur in whole lines among the stanzas.
