WONDERFUL
when I wrote yesterday pussy and cock are one I felt that
when pussy and cock are one then they are innocent and innocence
separated – they are shame
I cannot comprehend why have pussy and cock been declared as swearwords
why are they so hidden
how come that people don’t see buds in them
the very innocence
cock affirms pussy
pussy love-kisses cock
God affirms and love-kisses God
first time after the operation I am in downtown
I’m walking through Knez Mihajla Street
I feel incredibly great
I only am
I am the absence of pain
presence of God
I’m affirming You – trust me
through affirming You – I’m eternity
I am everything to everybody
I am happiness to everyone
I am everyone’s love
I am the daily bread to everybody
I am everyone’s enough daily money
I am flexibility in everyone’s body
I am a poem in everyone’s soul
I am conscious and consciousness in everyone’s spirit
I am a hangout in everybody
wonderful
I was running after a tram
I tripped over a high curb
I fell over the asphalt
I tore my pants on the knees
I ripped off the skin on my fingers
everything I do is God’s glory. everything I am is God
I FEEL EVEN NICER NOW
I didn’t get outside yet
the day before yesterday as well yesterday and last night I was a bit cold
I’m warming myself
I have huddled
I called myself towards myself
I embraced myself
in order to relax and protect myself
so that I feel nice
so that everybody feels nice
I feel nice feeling nice
it’s even nicer if the other is nice
I’m enjoying how nice he is
how he surrenders
to grace
how he disappears
in beauty
how he is dying
of beauty
and for beauty
and
here
is
today’s
poem
i am god
i am god
if I am to you
god I am
god
everything is one
simple
huddled
it warms up
nurtures
breath
to breath
RASPBERRY OF RASPBERRY COLOUR
a raspberry has fell on the heart drawing on the table
a trace of raspberry colour is left
tender
this second blanket which I wrapped myself in makes me feel good
it warms me up
not to mention the rockabilly which I’m listening to
it makes me happy
the taste of raspberry even more so
flaming
blessings upon blessings
I’m imagining You even though You are not around
I love You all these years
I will tell You when I see You
I admire You
without You I wouldn’t survive all these years
I’m dancing for You
don’t ever think that I think of anybody else but You
You are always only You
just You
You are I
I am You
music
one poem
sometimes I call You my Love-Kissing
sometimes my Beloved
sometimes Li Bai of mine
I love-kiss You and kiss You all over in front of everybody
I’m with no shame
the very innocence
You are my freedom
You are my consciousness
You are my conscience
You are my meaning
a raspberry of raspberry colour
BOARD
a stone in the grass gentle
all these little insects in front of my feet are getting closer and closer to me
little red strawberries in the grass
torn dry grass blades on the asphalt
many things which I don’t have words for or for
which I would need many words to describe them
I’m speechless how all those things I don’t have words for are beautiful
crushed little red piece of brick
dust out of little pieces of brick
really beautiful thrown away board
thrown away board reminded me of the moments in which I was coming across boards
I remember the time when I first found out of the board
this is the board
straight. usually smooth. yellow-white. board
the same way a fountain was a fountain. a wardrobe a wardrobe. a board was a board
board and nails
board and other boards
board and carpenters
table board. floor board. board across the puddle. board and lumberyard
board and house of boards
only when I think of a board I feel it’s personality. I feel
that for a window as well. for doors as well. for anything in this world
not only that I could have been born as a board
but I am as well a board as a window and doors
I know that You love me because I am as well a board as a window and doors
while I’m enjoying thinking of a board I’m also thinking of other things
of the car noise
of street
a board consists of the very board. a street consists of many things
little street consists of few things. big street consists of many things
a city consists of many more things than one street
planet Earth consists of much more things than there are things in one metropolis
Cosmos is a thing with the most things
all things and one peace that’s what Cosmos is
(in Serbian words “Cosmos” – “Svemir” is made out of two words “Sve”, meaning “All” & “mir”, meaning “peace”, T.N.)
only all things are made up of peace
only all beings are made up of love

I’m thirsty for You
the joy of writing the joy of reading
connecting
through one
through goodness
my heart is warm since yesterday from the nun who I passed by on the street
baby corn grains are filling with water
I still cannot part with the nun’s smile
she was neatly dressed in greyish-blue habit
with white collar
she lightly stepped on the stairs which I left to her
she was full of love
I always give way to people in the street especially to women
rarely someone thanks
they usually coldly pass by
the nun was pure warmth
she was moving easily with her strong body
I turned after her to bow to her and to remember her
innocence is connecting our hearts
not reality but kindness
nun’s love
a young bakery girl was also kind when she recommended a barley bread
loving only loving
loving gusts of wind
loving that slope
loving
everything
and
everyone
through

and
singing
it
with
love
