marko mi je tražio
da nauči na pamet moju pesmu
kako bi je recitovao u školi.

zato sam mu napisao ovu pesmu
koja je kratka i laka za pamćenje,
to jest bila bi kratka i laka za pamćenje
da nisam dodao sledeći deo:

otorinolaringolozi iz zapadnog sečuana
su dubili na tuđim osmotskim glavama
ispred metafizičkog univerziteta
onomatopeja sa alfa kentaura.

da marko nije dobio opomenu
od nastavnice matematike
napisao bih mu kratku i laku pesmu,
ali pošto jeste – evo mu je!

i wrote the previous poem
for my son Marko
for his school assignment

Marko ima za domaći
Da nauči bilo koju pesmu napamet.

Kao Markov tata koji je i pesnik
Čekao sam ovu priliku ceo život.

Odmah sam napisao ovu pesmu
U nadi da će mu se svideti.

diving deep in thassos
setting a tetris record in thassos

running out of gas with rafael in italy
snowboarding with sofija in serbia
swimming with marko on my back in france
