“Bio jednom jedan broj
Čist i okrugao kao sunce
Ali sam mnogo sam
Počeo je da računa sa sobom
Delio se množio
Oduzimao se sabirao
I uvek ostajao sam
Prestao je da računa sa sobom
I zaključao se u svoju okruglu
I sunčanu čistotu
Napolju su ostali usijani
Tragovi njegovog računanja
Počeli su da se jure po mraku
Da se dele kad se množe
Da se oduzimaju kad se sabiraju
Onako kako se to u mraku već radi
I nije bilo nikog da ga zamoli
Da tragove zaustavi
I da ih izbriše”
― Selected Poems

“Everything in the world was in precarious balance, pure risk, and those who didn’t agree to take the risk wasted away in a corner, without getting to know life.”

niti moze covjek biti trajno nesrecan,
dok Bog daje da se dusa lijeci zaboravom,
a zemlja obnavlja proljecem”
