poets futurists! I have taught you to hate libraries and museums in order to

possible time greatest possible number of kilometres pictures and thoughts
Velimir Khlebnikov
poetry and creation are the same thing
Guillaume Apollinaire
art doesn’t strive towards anything; it strives only to be art
Antun Branko Shimic
one should know a little – it’s the principle of a true, poet-master
or to be more precise: one should know only what should be known
Vladimir Sersenjevic
there should be only one means. concentrate on your deeper self. find out the reason that commands you to write; see whether it has spread its roots into the very depth of your heart; confess to yourself you would have to die if you were forbidden to write
R. M. Rilke
great poetry is praise
Paul Claudel
we want the poetry of the globe and cosmos

Srecko Kosovel
the purest surrealist act is walking into a crowd with a loaded gun and firing into it randomly
Andre Breton
great songs write themselves. you’re just being led by the nose or the ears. the skill is not to interfere with it too much. Ignore intelligence, ignore everything; just follow it where it takes you
Keith Richards
in writing you have to slide ahead. words can be lame and crippled, but if they slide ahead, then certain thrill livens everything up. careful writing is dead writing
Charles Bukowski
here is a problem worthy of a poet:
how not to write a poem
how not to write
just another poem
Tadeusz Rozewicz
god of poetry is unknowable god, distant god
Yves Bonnefoy
unexplainable beauty is more precious than the beauty which can be measured
Ralph Waldo Emerson
perfectness is a synthesis of eternity and transiency
Novalis
all most precious things are useless
quotation that I found while reading the poets texts
wanting what god wants is the only science that brings us peace
quotation that I found while reading the poets texts
poet’s words are his work
quotation that I found while reading the poets texts
my writing is ingenious. therefore an idea about superficial
writing. there is no power in it. there is no meaning
Slobodan Tisma
BOWING TO POEM – POEM IS A PROCESS OF WRITING A POEM
there
is no poem yet in these words but they are nothing else but the poem itself the process of writing is a belief that each following word is a poem writing a poem sings each following word little branch in the woods has touched my neck a bee is flying over the dead worm poem is everything that I got through my body through which I was born poem is the soul in which I was born poem is the mind through which I am love all beings and God autumn has came David Berge professional tourist who I walked with yesterday pointed to the fallen leaves poem is the process of tranquillity poem is the process from tranquillity to ecstasy poem is the process of ecstasy poem is the process from ecstasy to tranquillity my love for Kant’s a priori thinking is poem all poems are the process of writing one and only poem poem is the work of loneliness and the process of loneliness through which loneliness transforms into all-love poem is the process of singing through which poem is becoming poem is the seven years old Gypsy boy who takes out and goes through the trash from the trash bins with great pleasure a man has carefully approached the kittens in the grass and started to caress them for his and their pleasure sake poem is the path of rose poem is a rose to the path poem is easiness or heaviness through which poem becomes. working on it. accepting the poem. enjoying with it Miroslav Mandic book is the process of writing one and only poem constant singing writing the poem is like washing your hands or tying a belt process of writing a poem is unknown and it’s never ending process of writing a poem out of the poem makes whiteness whiter than the snow softness softer than cotton quietness quieter than the Universe live livelier than alive process of writing a poem is mixing until a whipped cream of indescribable pleasure is made pleasure in which admiration and gratitude are hugging and kissing poem is constant budding of the poem
BOWING TO POEM – POEM IS THE BLESSINGS
sunny morning. opened window and the
balcony doors. tender voice of Madeleine Peyroux I’m squeezing out the linden mucus out of the tea bag. I’m reading David’s Psalms my flesh and my heart faileth, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever Psalm 73:26 being blessed means meeting God blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled. blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. blessed are they that are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely for My sake Matthew, 5.3-11 I adore blessed ones two homeless people are sitting in the park up on the bench a homeless woman is sitting on her own strong smells of women that were passing by me the end of summer can be felt in everything two flowers of the moss-rose that I love a lot have started growing out of the asphalt poem is blessing – blessing is being poem is blessing – blessing is writing a poem blessing is when I don’t feel anything when I just am blessing is when I’m noteven aware that I am I enjoy when I feel that people I’m passing by are in blessed states I’m watching the trees and I get a thought that the trees are constantly in blessings a gaze with love always brings blessing two young women are walking slowly. they are coming back from the graveyard. they are talking quietly I lifted up two queens from the ground for tomorrow’s tea beggar woman that I love has sent towards me two year old girl and one year old boy who are just approaching me with their hands stretched out blessing is the wholeness that heals tree branches are slightly swinging making the poem out of the swinging I love – I love to love I write – I write in order to write I walk – I walk in order to walk blessing is not guarding of life but giving one’s life look at my shoulder and you’ll see Your leaned face on it look at my face and You’ll see God look at this poem and you’ll feel the blessing within it blessing is mildness within horse’s eyes. mildness in granny’s hands. mildness in exhausted worker. mildness in indefinite. mildness in slim trunks of birch. mildness in the warm and soft belly blessings are the sealed and silent lips blessing is the smile that approves blessing is mild getting into the poem and touching singing of each word in it

BOWING TO POEM – POEM IS ANCIENT POETRY
from the book Anthology of Ancient Poetry with
greatest admiration and joy I’m rewriting the following
with all primitive people, one of the main sources of magic powers is a word
speaking good is indistinguishably connected to doing good,
so we can understand why Indians consider lie one of the greatest sins
primitive world can be rather called civilisation of the word
for example in one African language asking is expressed in
eleven ways and singing or walking in twenty or so different ways
poetry in primitive societies is much deeper inwrought in
everyday life then it is the case in contemporary, civilised world
primitive poetry, unlike the most of the European poetry, is very
rarely just recited, in most of the cases it rather represents unique mixture
of music, singing and dancing and often mime as well as acting or visual expression
percussions are almost always used, which is a proof of
distinct and tight connection of the verse and music rhythm
with all primitive people heeler, shaman
can be considered as some kind of protopoet
many of the songs are becoming through visions,
what is preceded with isolation, fasting and wandering rituals
poems are thoughts that are rising with a breath when people are possessed with
great powers and when plain talk isn’t enough anymore. a man is shaken like a peace
of ice that is floating here and there, carried by the current. mighty power is putting his
thoughts in motion while he feels joy, fear, sorrow… we are afraid to use words. but it
will happen that the words we are looking for appear on their own. when the words
we want to use occur on their own – that’s when we have a new poem
God and ancestors,
thank you for letting
me see this day
Ibo tribe, Africa
a woman can’t look at the male genitalia – and not be glad
Yoruba, Africa
when butterflies come to the place where a cheetah shits they disperse all over
Yoruba, Africa
a drove of reindeers on Varanger Peninsula
are running over the rocks and rocky highlands
beautiful beasts are beating the tips of the rocks
Laponya, Asia
how can possibly someone who is satiated and healthy
understand the frenzy of hunger?
we only know that we all tremendously love life!
Eskimos
now on the east
white beans and big corn plant

Chippewa Indians
in front of me is peaceful
behind me is peaceful
underneath me is peaceful
above me is peaceful
peace is all around me
his voice is peaceful when he nickers
I’m eternal and peaceful
I’m with my horse
Navaho Indians
when the earth was made
when the sky was made
when my poems started sounded for the first time
Apaches
where the wind blows
were the wind whistles
where the wind roars as well
I’m standing turned towards the west
the wind
is whistling
the wind is roaring
I’m standing
Teton Sioux
my walk is beauty
beauty is in front of me
beauty is behind me
beauty is above me
beauty is above me and around me while I’m walking
and my walk is ending in beauty
my walk is ending in beauty
Navaho Indians
corn takes root and the rose is opening…
gods are singing
hills and mountains are singing
and roses are singing
Huichol Indians
I was climbing to the place where roses were singing
where gods were waiting
for the blue stairs towards the sky
Huichol Indians
and we are walking the earth
this is how we should be thinking…
we are thanking the grass and plants
we are thanking the things we named
we are thanking the bushes, the forest, the maple
we are thanking the strawberries
we are thanking the animals which walk the Earth
on this day we are thanking the birds that are flying through the air
we are thanking the air for dispersing the Air over the Earth
we are thanking the sky
we are thanking our Brother Sun
we are thanking our Arch Father Moon
we are thanking on this day
this is how we should be thinking
Seneca Indians
even if I remain alone
even the tiniest tremor of the branches and grass – I cannot bare!

BOWING TO POEM – POEM IS SAMENESS
as for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth
for the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more

identity (from Latin idem = same), sameness, equality, identical. in logics:
a relation which turns each object entirely towards itself. the principle of
identity, which is for the first time mentioned by Aristotle, can be formulated
like this: each being is just what it is, that is to say it’s determined to be what
it is and not at the same time something else, each being is what it is –
“A = A” – and it expresses same content of a certain idea

I immediately felt the presence of everybody who has exactly what they have

THE POEM OF MONDAY
around the motif of a river the most modern
detail has always been and will always be a rowboat
last night I dreamt this sentence
I just wanted to say
it’s noon. warm wind is blowing before tonight’s rain and storm
but my Dictaphone was broken. I dropped it on the ground on Saturday
and now it’s silent
I really wanted to write while walking and now I’m tired and I don’t really feel like writing
I quite like this really at the beginning and in the end
love for writing will open me up and loyal writing will pour out
the music I’m listening to will swirl the blood within me
I will fly
with words with words
with warm wind which was lifting my hair
I enjoy when the wind blows goodness over my bare skin
everything that is is for everybody
I like even more this is at the beginning and in the end of the sentence
sing Miroslav sing Miroslav
all the cells in my body are telling me at once
sing Miroslav sing Miroslav
all the cells in all bodies are telling me at once
the world is the way I say it is
blue blends into green
with sense in my nostrils
fury transformed into obedience
water confluences into the water
wind blows over the waters
today I wanted to write about the light
daily light and everyday of light
about its meandering and refraction
about friendship with light
nothing but that – light burns within blood
it washes my sandals on the balcony
loving is beautiful because everybody can be loved
the wind was today at one moment the sea that was roaring above my head
swim in my sea
I would love if a friend of mine would go again to the seaside
Louis Armstrong
wind is spreading goodness
wind is blowing with goodness
being in the wind means being in goodness
around the motif of a river the most modern
detail has always been and will always be a rowboat
I affirm the sentence from my dream also in reality
I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF I AM YOU ARE I BOOK
I am god
circling
of the wholeness
which pulsates
within the tiniest
and in the biggest it
transforms into me
today’s poem from I am You are I book
today is the half of I am You are I book
buds of God
they are like little piles of stones
like lumps
turfs
galaxies
simple
just begun and already finished
inner
singing lullabies
I am god
lilacs are smelling
your love
makes me god
13th April 2011
I’m editing them again
they are leading me like flowers are leading bees
I am god
white irises in the wind
everybody’s face wants to be god
everybody’s face is my face
27th April 2011
I would like to print them as a book
I can see that book. I can feel it in my hands. it feels good in my pocket
it’s cloudy. it’s raining. I’m reading little poems of God
God
I am god
light yearns
for the poem
of runaway children
in the dusk
9th May 2011
I am God’s glory

10th June 2011
I just now realised the fact that on my screen are at the same time open both books
on the left side I am You are I and on the right side today’s blessings from Miroslav Mandic
book in which I’m reacting to what I’ve read in the book I am You are I
that’s how two rivers are flowing
they are going their ways towards the only way towards the only book
God’s beauty before my eyes
on the screen and at the desk on which I’m writing every day poems I am You are I
I am god
god in each conversation with you
I’m discovering the language through which you dear god are
