Meta Kušar

55.

I lack strong comic lines.  
When the moon and I are face to face,
when I watch a rose,
they don’t dare come close.
The god of this day has his birthday.
Has such words.
Has a future, which is the present.
The present which is eternal.

55.

Manjkajo mi mogočni komični stavki.
Ko se gledava z luno,
ko opazujem vrtnico,
si ne upajo blizu.
Bog današnjih dni ima rojstni dan.
Ima take stavke.
Ima prihodnost, ki je sedanjost.
Ima sedanjost, ki je veènost.

I lack strong comic lines.  
When the moon and I are face to face,
when I watch a rose,
they don’t dare come close.
The god of this day has his birthday.
Has such words.
Has a future, which is the present.
The present which is eternal.

The present which is eternal.
