POETS

Where are you, poets?

You wizards?

Let’s color this sad world

And people with masks,

With our bright words

Cause’ these eyes, behind the masks,

Have already lost their shine and glow

As we do not breathe at all.

Go ahead, raise your voice

And wipe the mud from your shoes,

In the name of all those

Silent people in their homes,

Immersed in misery of

Every day and boring jobs.

Let’s spread the wings of our imagination

Upon this program-minded world

And preserve the scent of childhood

And first kisses,

Alive!

Let’s give love a chance to come back,

That divine joy of life,

Let’s pour from our poems

And let it flow around the streets

All over the world

And let it reach and touch

Every single lonely man in tears

And each woman in black.
