Butterfly
I drew a butterfly
on my right thigh
using blue ink
a bit darker
than the sky.

| [in my daddy's shoes] |
I had a dream
I wanted
Meter and seventy
Black heels
And a Bug
Blue
Metallic
Cabrio
White legs
Long hair
And big tits
like Monica Belluci
blue dress with white dots….
In front of the steering wheel
A white rose
And red light
On the traffic-lights…
I have no Bug
no white rose
nor a dress
not even blue…
just some white dots
into my eyes…

Open book
You’re an open book,
He said,
You’re a cactus shaped in a heart,
You’re a cat
Alone and wet from the October rains…
You’re a book,
He said,
Beautiful, special book,
Which I read only when it rains,
while listening to jazz …
You’re a book,
That I love to read,
That I choose to read
For holydays
For special occasions,
You’re a book
standing on my FB Books - Tab
You’re an illustrated book
Illustrated book of poetry,
You’re a wet book,
Dowsed by the October rains
And frosted
at dawn…
You’re a crumpled, lone, sad special book
Standing by yourself on the bookshelf
I bought it just for you,
He said,
I bought the shelf in London.
You’re a book
For special occasions
I read you when I like to treat myself
But you won’t leave me alone…
You have that scent…
That smell of rotting flower
Wet paper…
You call me,
You want me to read you on a regular day?!
I took you from the shelf
And you were soaked
But there was no rain today?!
My dear, salty lonesome book
I’ll open you
tomorrow…
I’ll read you
the day after tomorrow…
I’ll read you
in two
or three days…
And then, my book…
I’ll just return you
at the library…
* When u start with poetry?
- what were the first things that inspire you to write? -what started your journey in the arts and poetry ?
I started writing when I was about 11, 12 years old. It’s the age when you start thinking about who you are, what is the meaning of life and things like that and some thoughts and feelings were born and were wondering in my head till I wrote them down.
I get inspired by many things, the world and people around me, my inner world, my emotions and thoughts of life.
The biggest influence that I had back then, was the rock music.
My love towards drawing dough, was born at early age, since I could hold a pencil by myself!
*Do you think that the poetry is strong weapon in the hands of person who know how to use it to bring his message between the people?
Well I do think that poetry can be a very useful and powerful media so one can bring his message between the people, but I don’t like the expression weapon, because weapon is destructive and I’m a constructive person, so I like to think that my poetry can touch other people and it can lead to other creative ideas and actions, to build a better world.
*You are published poet, who have his first book. how's the feeling/ does it helps in the future promoting of your poetry?
- on which languages till now ur poetry is translated on?
The fact that I am a published poet helps a lot. When you are published people approach you more seriously and read your work more carefully, they don’t take you for granted. And that is sad I think, because there are a lot of good writers out there that didn’t had the opportunity to be published and the world doesn’t even know about their work and the big loss in the world of culture because of that. It is hard to do art and be appreciated, it is now and it always was.
But when you are a published writer it is like you’ve crossed an initiation rite and as a reward you get the feedback from your readers and share your poems and thoughts and feelings with them, and that is just wonderful, pure love.
My poetry so far has been translated in to English, Chinese, Dutch and Serbian and soon it will be published in a literary magazine in Spanish.
...besides writing poetry, u draw illustrations that actually took part of your book and were the graphic solution/ design for. .. which came first - the art or the poetry?
Well in my life first came the drawing and then years after the writing. The drawings I used as illustrations in my poetry book “Mosquitoes” occurred in parallel in the same period of time and they are not directly connected to the poems, but they do have the same messages and ideas as the poems in my book so I decided to wrap them up together and complete the story.
