LAW OF EQUALITY
As long as there're more
than one human left,
the equality doesn t work…
… and finally, when that
last one stands, it s too late.

MEASURE OF THE WISDOM
The wisdom of the individual
ain't any significance.
Only its relation to surrounding
wisdom determines you.

QUESTION TO ALL OF US
You own your brain
but
who finally owns
your thoughts?

INSIGHT
Facts that we are big
or small are insignificant.
Fact that we are,
means already something.
Fact that we get the coffee parcel
advantageously
seems to be most essential.

EPICURISM
The dinner party enjoys the abundant yield.
Blue fox which hangs in the cloakroom
got it already yesterday.

AWAKENING
Early morning.
My TV greets me with
wars and on floods.
On government crises
and six zero results.
Soap in my eyes and
shaver in joint consultation
committee negotiations.

ROSES AND TERMINAL TREATMENT
Life's aim is planting the rose.
There is the task of the death
to tear it from the flower bed...
...terminal treatment in vase.

I SPY
I spy on myself from behind the corner.
I walk behind me.
Does somebody follow me?
Which one am I?
Am I in front of me or behind?
I'll try to follow all this from the sidelines.

NARCISSIST
My mirror image fell when I was in the bath
I saw it from the TV.
My neighbour paid my TV licence fee.
I'm my own neighbour myself,
kind human being.

IN RED
In red like a hood you will come
against but do not be afraid.
I'm not big and not bad.
I'm neither a wolf nor a grandmother.
I'm that frog, that one which
a prince did not come.

GIVE ME
Give me a power to hold the pain.
Give me a power to meet bad.
Give me a cigarette!

WINTER
Winter, under shoe crunching.
The beach mattress is awaiting.
Straight lines of Smoke statues
have surrendered.

SILENCE
If silence whispers to me
i m free to write it down.
If shouts, i'll call to my doctor.

LATHE BED OF LIFE
Sliver by sliver life
is latheing us till speed
extinguishs and we graduate.
No Right To Return

FLAMENCO
Guitar with spaghetti strings.
Maiden with felt boots and
stressballs in her hands.
I'm Out of Here!

Fact, fiction, fusion and fission.
Those're the words of love mission.

THE CHILD INSIDE MY MIND
The child,
who lives inside my mind,
claims outside every now and then.
In due time i let him out
and dipping my fingers
to melted stearin.
