Poems
A poem is like driving a nail into a wall. The fewer strokes you need, the better. If it takes too long, or if your strokes are too complicated, the poem will fail. But what corresponds to the wall? The soul? Your heart? My inability?
These are two of my poems written in English:
Soldiers |
You |
---|---|
I did not go with them I did not fight with them Nor did I cry or starve with them. But sure a day will come when I fall back to let them resurrect just from my toying box to be their general commander field marshal thus loving them thus killing them for all those good things wars have been made. |
You survived. Some day. Some hour. Without the descent of bombers. Without hungry cheeks. The way to tram along the broken corner. The passage to bakery long before time was set up. Now let your body get home. |
