A hollow place of empty color

The Green Hunter

sap green and jaune brillant

While the trees buckled under his great will, he wants to build an indoor toilet.
It will be the first indoor toilet that the village has ever seen.
Water will flow through it like colorless blood.
His great word is alive.
One bullet.

***

Pablo - The Mother

ivory black and gold ochre

The mother is the one that has seen everything.
In her hands lies the crushed past of human kind.
Digested past in old worn out leather bags.
With one sign, it all comes back and flows
over the world like water.
Water flows over the leather memories.

***

The Cactus

raw umber and copper

Manufacturing minds of mindless morons.
It once was an orchard over there.
Petrified thoughts.

***

Suspicious warmth

prussian blue and green gold

The walls are closing in, over what used to be the warm table of brotherhood.
Questions bleed.
Carpenters started to build a new round table.
Unity for all!

***

Bee Magic

cadmium green with a touch of permanent rose

The wings clap between scraps of wounded rats.
They continue stinging the dying rat.
His tail is stiff, just like a bee thorn.
A melody takes his place.

***

Voluntary Silence

purple madder and bismuth yellow

Suffering is that of flickering feathers.
Silent flickering feathers.
Fallen feathers.

***

Dark Silence

winsor yellow and blue black

The darkness of sheltered pleasures.
Under the darkness lies another black hole.
Under the black hole lies the eternal forgetfulness.
Dark memories.

***

Exploding Silence

venetian red and oxide of chromium

A bubble bursts like the open guts of a decaying chinese monster.
Legendary fire flows along his mummified falanges.
In slow rhythms of burning dried flesh, his legend is written.
And then he silently explodes into history.

***

The Mechanised Byzantine Fantasy

brasov orange and mars black

In the name of the eastern faith, towards a peaceful future
of light and plenty
by tireless hands of teutonic knights
through clear voices of strong monarchs
with fists of iron
"Freedom" we shouted
and free we were.

***

And There It Was

dark prussian green and purple lake

Her gaze into the past
raising in orderly fashion
one demon after the other.

***

The Roads of Rapid Judgement

charcoal grey and transparent maroon

He stopped.
And after he stopped two roads is what he saw.
He went on both.
One after the other.
He came back with his hands full of wild strawberries.

***

Unimportant

davy's grey and pale naples yellow

The pots of oil, lined up for the end.
Their color is like the color of our desires.
War is here
and we're ready for it.

***

Expecting Wave

raw umber and silver

stillness is stirred with his finger
and a wave slowly leaves.
Very large at first
then his motivation
slowly shrinks.

***

Pablo - The Mother II

lamp black and indian yellow

Her ears have always been in the presence of greatness.
The motherhood of great music
and great tones.
She's been hearing the divine presence
in the world.

***

Straight Warmth

cadmium orange with a touch of ultramarine

She looked straight in the eyes of the sheep thief.
She saw his paper flag and she heard his songs.
And the russian played an old tune on his accordion.
...and his flag was up on the Reichtag.

***

The Postman's Horse

prussian blue and bright red

His decoration stood bravely on the back of his head.
Eternal glory on his chest.
And the horse always smiles under a true hero.
And the hero smiles as well.

***

Earth's Distillery

permanent deep green and transparent brown oxide

From the ground, one after the other,
marxists open their sunburned eyes.
The morning was red but corrupted.
Canned dreams of idealism.
Their glasses are full of brandy
and their hearts full of enthusiasm.

***

Red House

winsor emerald with a small light red square

A red House they found,
on a mysterious road.
Water was flowing next to it,
with history of falling kings.
The straw fence was not enough
to guard their fallen swords.

***

Let There Be Music!

ivory black with splashes of green gold

A trumpet in the distance
and the circus is here.
He jumps.
And there was music.
He lands.
And the music is over.

***

Let there be words!

french ultramarine and ceruleum blue

And there was silence.
The silence of nothingness.
There was nothing, but there was a beginning.
A perfect line in the middle.
Sublime primordial words.

***

Accept My Sunny Death!

olive green and cadmium yellow

And there will be my throne.
I'll stay up straight and wave.
On top of the world,
from my bed I'll look down
and the sun will round and slippery
And I'll sleep
silently.

***

The Diagonal Mausoleum

scarlet lake and flesh tint

Like a skinned bull he hangs with a steel hook
piercing his neck.
Specially for him
the law of gravity
gained a certain angle
of eternal honor.
An ocean of blooming flowers.

***

The Guardians of a World of Reason

lemon yellow and terra rosa

There was an island
an island like a world
Creators of life and reason
once came on the streets and yelled
and again the island
vanished.

***


Like water

viridian and cobalt blue

Water poured over the world
and a boat with a song
like a fatherly cry of mercy
sailed away
on the waves, towards the pale father.

***


Fallen Retreat

cobalt chromite green and gold ochre

Diagonally drawing escape routs on the ground.
Drowning his ideas in clouds of daring faith.
The fence is high and the fall is long.
Drowning himself in fumes
Of his defeat.

***

Sunrise

yellow ochre and green gold

Suddenly the stones are alive
spectacularly punching a hole in his head.
From that hole white jelly poured
on the round, slippery sun.

***


Sunset

indigo and purple lake

The memory of roundness kept vivid in his mind
for a while.
Then he left and all kept wiping
everywhere.

***


Sheep Shelter

permanent green and yellow ochre

Moving through sheep skinned jumping dreams.
Eating and drinking.
Sleeping and dreaming.
"This is my shelter!" says the shepherd.
"This is my sheep shelter!"

***

My knees are weak

mars black and french ultramarine

I found myself on a lonely bleeding road,
holding my guts in my hands.
I had to escape from being buried alive.
I was among my dead brothers.
They all died but I was alive.
Holding my guts in my hands
and running.

***


All Gone

winsor emerald and cobalt blue

It once was my preacher's memory
paralysed on the porch of my father.
My paralysed father.
Teaching him the alphabet.
Starting from letter A
Ending with the sunset.

***

Whitegrass

deep cobalt blue with light naples yellow stripes

Visually challenging with an eye catcher on each side.
Advancing partially uncovered,
with a flash wound on her left shoulder.
Greeting the wallows upstream.
And low, down under,
her way is forever carved
in white marble.

***


Possession

terre verte and naples yellow

Sanctity with golden leaves of late autumn.
Through rough dirty forest roads
their future forever shall be formed
in the shape of gentle saints
with wings of angels.

***


My Bridge Over Falling Waters

lamp black and bright cadmium yellow

He sliced a car with a single blow of his powerful sword.
Sublime bridge
with a mechanical pump.
And water never stops
from falling.

***


My French Fantasy

cadmium lemon and winsor red

From you I take my view of flowers
Away from your celestial grace
Those hearts which you created
In the form of your spirit.

***


The Postman

Rose dore and purple lake

His hand was pulled away from his body
and sent straight down, in the grass of reason.
There was no reason.
And yet he stopped.
And thought.

***

Dark Shelter

manganese blue and ultramarine violet

A shelter of sleeping chairs
with bent walls
broken beds
and rotten structure.
It waits for it's second
of fatality.
And he finally found a cover here
after running for days.

***


From Tectonic Wings

ceruleum blue and cobalt green

Silver plated lead structures
polished to reflect supreme ambitions
and dreams of greatness.
They raise up high, but not on their own.
Exploding forces of
some other world.

***


The Grapes of My Childhood

Mauve bleu and burnt sienna

His sunburned hands were cutting the last leaves.
Summer was finished
And so was he
Together with his scissors he went away
And never came back.
All I had left were the grapes
and their colors.

***

Some Sort of Michelangelo

Yellow ochre and terra rosa

Extatic eyes have found a shelter
from heavy burning rain.
And there was flesh and great desire.
Dynamic shapes of drapes were falling
spiraling away from me.

***

Electric Flowers

magenta and prussian green

With will of stone and eyes of velvet
they saw the end.
By noon they made a cast of granite
which they carved with their fingernails.
Darkness.
And flowers were cut
instead of grass.

***

Sugar Beat

winsor emerald and raw sienna

His carnacious lips have been tasting the world's sweet auras.
Crowns of heroic kings stood on his covered ears.
He heard nothing.
and did nothing.
The future is in hungarian salami.

***


And There Will Be Music!

winsor blue and purple lake

After he was born, the priest said with warm voice,
that a sea of flowers fell from the sky.
And a star was born
of infinite beauty
with rays of silver.
And his feathers fell in wonder.

***


Pablo - The Mother III

prussian blue and cadmium green

Her hands have felt the big changes
crumbled under the pressure of hurricanes
marveled in the presence of pure destruction
tangled in the shape of memories
reflecting mysteries.
And yet Chopin is alive
behind the outhouse.

***


Forever House

jaune brillant and olive green

They say it once was a house in a place covered with petals
of red roses
and dirt.
and screaming voices of desperate housewifes.
And broken dreams
by the dozen.

***


Three Crosses, a New Beginning

raw umber and transparent yellow

A village has no logic without a cross at the entrance.
There is another cross at the exit
And one in the center.
A visual trademark, a new identity
rhymes with an infamous apocalypse.

***

Fallen rock

charcoal grey and renaissance gold

Collective dream of worlds of workers
stood straight in front of empty shells.
And heavy rocks kept them from sinking
in our past.

Sliding Furry

perylene black and copper

From glorious steeps of their past
they come along very fast,
sliding down on broken leaves
and yellow moss.

The House of Middle Rage

They broke the windows of their sanity
they forged signatures of national heroes
and knocked on the doors of their prison cells.
Finally they broke free
in infinite rage.

One Fact

prussian green and prussian blue

An electric impulse is loose in front of us.
Signaling a new beginning
by a red light flashing
a certain door.

No Trespassing!

permanent carmine and davy's grey

Furious eagles are circling above
and waiting for a signal
to tumble down upon whoever
makes a decisive movement.

***

Porthole Gaze

cobalt turqoise and cobalt green

During the night some electronic devices
had been attached to the thick hull of our ship.
We know about them.
We know our history.
But we can't be bothered
as we are gazing out
towards a sinful abyss...

***

Pitch Black

deep indigo with a touch of bright magenta

As I sit on the edge of her bed,
I plunge my fingers in my eyes
so powerful that they start bleeding.
Shouting at the closed gate
I take them out suddenly
not to miss her final breath.

***

Edge Free

chrome green and winsor violet

We are almost ready to recive our destiny.
To finally hear what is the way of our blood.
And there we were,
throwing stones at the castle gate
with furious eyes
and fast fingers.

***

Blue Eyes

permanent mauve with two ceruleum blue dots

Towards the end of any regime,
there is always a fear of blue eyes.
Laws are being written and peace keeping forces
are being strictly informed about the danger
of blue eyed people.
You can never trust blue eyed people.

***

The Fast

raw umber and olive green

For many generations,
before a great celebration,
people bend over, like hunchbacks
and start their feast with a big shout of victory.
And they stop breathing.

***

I've Seen Electricity!

terra rossa and deep brown madder

When I was small, I witnessed a great miracle.
They came in my house and installed over my bed
a little light bulb
that made me see
clearly
what I haven't been able to see before.

***

The Courtyard of All

sap green and vandyke brown

Start holding the pole!
Start pushing the pole!
Start bending the pole!
Start burining holy fumes!
The house will finally fall.

***

He's Dead!

mars black and transparent red ochre

He had a young untrained horse which he wanted to educate.
LEFT! He shouted!
RIGHT! He shouted!
But he couldn't control the forces of nature
which threw him to the ground
and his brains shattered in the mud.

***

The Patriots

permanent red and cadmium lemon

Before they went away,
they didn't forget to hang out, in front of their house
the flag
of the country they love.
And they went.

***

Wolves!

purple madder and terre verte

No! No! No!
There are no wolves in here!
Not while I'm around!
They know my fists!
And with ax I'll split their heads in two!
Like Stefan cel Mare used to do!

***

Some Sort of Guernica

charcoal grey and raw umber

They came flying over, with a mission.
Flash, surgically precise bombs, threw on some certain targets.
But instead they destroyed everything else
except of the targets.
Here, unfortunately there was no oak
to cast shadow over holy grounds...

***

They Went for Better

payne's grey and terra rossa

When stomacks shout louder then blood,
ruins out of their ignorance are born
and die silently
as background noise
in some anonymous football game
between shady teams.

***

Bell Tower

transparent red and burnt sienna

First I went there, and the tower was like a viewing post.
Beautiful bronze bells
And endless view
Now the last floor is almost gone
as the carpenter passed away.

***

Not For Long

mars deep violet and gold ochre

They called for the car, as her knees are much too weak
for any travel.
She's watching over plains of pure destruction
...but not for long.

Bread

Baked bread casts it's smell over the village.
The way is long, and the bread gets heavier.
No grains grow any longer here
as the man with the whip died.

***

Electric Wisdom

cobalt violet and indigo

He has a cup board full of framed pictures of young girls.
"They all are my girlfriends" he says
humbly looking towards the icon with plastic frame on the wall.
"I forgot to buy batteries!
Baby Jesus will not be lighten tonight!"

***

The Priest is Gone

blue black, bright red and white stripes

It was a cold day of december.
They knocked at his door, showing him the newspaper.
The King is gone!
You must go as well!

Electric Poetry

cadmium red and winsor yellow

Beheaded maid of direct current
shouts in multicolored voices
over the bright horizon
longing for medieval ballrooms
with land owners and candlelight.

***

Pablo - The Falling Mother

naples yellow and indian red

Pablo is gone. Now you can come, tumbling down
like his cornea.
Like his decaying vision has seen the face of Stalin
and made a strange hero
out of it.

***

One Hidden Message

prussian green and a touch of venetian red

I still remember how that last fugue was.
With crumbled fingers but accurate nuance
she starts remembering
distant vague memories
from another world.

***

Electric Pagoda

burnt umber and permanent rose

The landlord collapsed one day
with a bottle of booze piercing his face
diagonally pouring dark fluids
over himself.
And we discovered glorious chemical secrets
to keep him alive
in his own electric pagoda.

Fresh Air

rose dorre and manganese blue

There once was a poet
or a working class hero
who sold canned air of Paris.
25 cubic centimeters
of fresh air.

***

The Silk Rout

quinacridone magenta and flesh tint

With loaded camels and crying babies
obedient chinese merchants passed by
day by day
with more and more
silk.

Cover

ivory black and bismuth yellow

Her eyes lost everything that was alive
and now stood fixed
on the flower in the window.
"Please! Take the curtain away!
You must see it bloom!"

***

Clarity

indian yellow and cadmium orange

I have in the back pocket of my cotton pants
a prism of divine beauty.
I found it once,
in the temple of Apollo!

***

Homework

cobalt violet and mauve bleu

Some drums started pounding in my ears
like in Gustav's mind
one thought flourished above all.
A spirit has to be created.
And in it's name we all raised
and sang.

***

Fresh Grave

raw umber and cadmium orange

When the carpenter died
a fresh grave had to be dug.
The priest went away in a cold december night
and he died somewhere else.
We don't know where.
The carpenter shall be buried
in the grave ment for the priest.
The bells never rang again.

***

Salty Water

lamp black and rose dore

After patriots leave,
in front of their house
there always will be a puddle
of salty water,
that never dries.

New Waves

purple lake and bright red

It happened once, in Stalingrad
as I aimed, they aimed at me
and my cause was lost
as I couldn't dance
at the victory ball.

***

Old Waves

One shoemaker glowed like a mysteriously bright boot.
And shouted words that no one heard before.
He said something about his body
to be kept forever
in an electric pagoda.

***

There Once Was a Flood

cadmium green and cobalt turqoise

No waves could be too big to wipe out the glory
of a fallen empire,
but a wave of beer and bloody stakes
is always enough
to drag them away.

Brotherhood

winsor blue and cobalt green

In iron tents
their unity was signed
in blood.

and his clothes perfectly matching
the color of my childhood sky.

Rays from above
flowing underneath him.
