A BIRD WITH SCORCHED wings makes its

A BIRD WITH SCORCHED wings makes its
way on the wire:
   
winter dream:
wind coiled

around silence:
there we go hard

in our persistence:
we pick up rocks

and murder all
that remains:

while we murder –
there is some hope:

while there is
some hope –

A BIRD WITH SCORCHED wings makes its

PO ŽICI IDE – ptica
spaljenih krila:

zimski san:
vjetar obavijen

oko tišine:
idemo tvrdi

u svojoj upornosti:
dižemo kamenje

i ubijamo
sve čega još

uvijek ima:
dok ubijamo –

ima nade:
dok ima

nade –
Close
