SLOVO LJUBAVI (THE WORD OF LOVE)
SLOVO LJUBAVI
(THE WORD OF LOVE)
Here I am
nailed to this hated bed
with the bright shiny
nails of cancer.
Death smiles
& wants to take me
as his
bride
but I
remain unfaithful
to him
elope with life
(if only for this night)
spending golden moments
as if there were no
tomorrow.
I fling my laughter
in his big stupid grinning face
as if he thinks
this is all a human is
a something to be
taken.
I hope to sneak out
when he is not looking
or looking the other way
before he discovers me
alive in your heart
(untouchable)
my memory
safe in your memory
so that to **** me
he will have to **** you too.
So beware my friend
you will become
a marked man
& Death
cheated of my soul
will hunt you
down
and rip me from
your heart
to finish the job.
But I know
you will
hide me
hide me
among your words
little seeds
of me
that will propagate
so that Death
would have to **** the whole world.
I laugh to see
the little seedlings
of me
sprout in other
minds
other voices
see my laughter
blossom
on a strange
tongue
unknown to me
but known
Death furiously
glaring.
