National dishes Poem by Karol Chmel

National dishes



irrational weapons:
sextant, compass and the sixth sense

moorings under trees
are measured out
by definitive jingoist

(wayfaring
from here to there)

in a single
abstract moment centres
of gravity move

and then
coffee of return
if you believe in return

raven's song

if ravens
can be singing

Translation: Pavol Lukáč
