An Emergency Landing In Your Hair Poem by Pavol Janik
An Emergency Landing In Your Hair
Planes got it into their heads
that they were better than ships,
but pride comes before a fall.
The sadness of victory
is unbearable.
In the darkness of your hair
glitter the tiny wrecks
of airships
and to the bottom of your eyes
sink sparkling mysteries.
Speechlessly
- like the smile on your lips
I'm awaiting my opportunity.
(1991)
