YUGOSLAVIA

Glass
Mysterious like the religion,
which has not yet found 
adequacy with the mob,
floating, a sail, 
pushing clouds away.
A disappearer into oblivious heights,
before I sleep,
hunting down thoughts in exile.
 
Fear and tremor in a suit of white,
between the pillows of eider-down 
and silk. 
Courage is circling 
the atmosphere of wandering rays. 
Mesmerized.
 
Standing in a column of ripe, 
hypnotic fruit,
imagining the foundations of time.
 
A rain of words is pouring 
through the silence of the temple,
the cruelty of the inevitable smile,
a mirror reflecting the crystal depths
of I. 
 
Under the sky of Mycenae flows the tunnel
through my dream of glass.
