R/evolution

a nomad.
a swallow, my last token,
nomad I don’t know what I write when I’m writing
s o u l
it’s probably just a glorious word
in the magnetic field of a childhood story.
a swallow, nomad, Che my father, draw me ten
white geese
keep them
until I get lost,
until I mix myself up with them in the drawing.
peace, my last original,
to remind me again
I’m speechless mannequin,
I’m essay odysseus
to remind me again
I’m moon’s speechless mannequin
I’m moon’s coupon
mushroom, leaflet.

R/evolucija

R/evolucija

nomad.
lastavica, moj posljednji žeton,
nomad ne znam što pišem kada pišem
d u š a
to je naprosto uvjetno veličanstvena riječ
u magnetskom polju storije o djetinjstvu.
lastavica, nomad oče Che, nacrtaj deset
bijelih gusaka
da ih čuvam
dok se ne izgubim,
dok se na crtežu ne pomiješam s njima.
mir, moj posljednji original,
da se već sjećam
da sam lutak koji ne govori,
da sam esej odisej
da se već sjećam
da sam mjesečev lutak koji ne govori
da sam mjesečev kupon
gljiva, letak.
