Geometry of your body

The geometry of your body always comes over me insidiously: deaf entanglement of triangles and circles, a musical score to the pathless paths of biblical curses, a web of swelling beyond chemistry, openings of the cosmos’ vocals filling me with dimmer and dimmer signs, immobile, ever dangerous fear stolen from the valley of dead guards.

Geometrija tvojeg tijela

Geometrija tvojeg tijela

Sve me podmuklije obuzima geometrija tvojega tijela: gluha zavrzlama trokuta i krugova, partitura bespuća i staza biblijskih prokletstava, splet bubrenja izvan kemije i vremena, otvori svemirskih vokala koji u mene sipaju sve mutniji nepokret znakova, sve opasniji strah ukraden dolini mrtve straže.
