Georgi Gospodinov Poems
Is there anybody going to listen to my story
You lay the girl
who has laid her boy
who has laid the girl

and left the door ajar.

a rabbit stew was slowly cooking on the hob,
...
It has rained outside
you walk out sluggish from sleep and
(on your way to the privy)
hrush

Here November
is black with crows
unflustered waiting
not wanting anything
...
2 packs thin ready-rolled pastry sheets

The Best Poem Of Georgi Gospodinov
Girl
Is there anybody going to listen to my story
You lay the girl
who has laid her boy
who has laid the girl
who has laid her boy
who has laid the girl
You get laid you communicate
Behold! the universe is on your mattress
So much society in just a lass.
Translated from Bulgarian by Dimiter Kenarov
