  • Visiting my Mama

    – For so long have my eyes been seeking, / awaiting some letter of yours, my son – / in the nights my heart was wakeful / and quaking like a leaf in the wind.

  • He and I

    Every evening we meet on a busy street / as he scurries along like a beggar along walls / and his eyes carry sorrow / and heavy it weighs in his silent hands

  • Łódź

    My friend the dreaming poet / is full of sunset wine, / On his flute he sadly plays / the song of loss of better days and time
