Analysis of the man hunted an endless fox

Sviatoslav Hurhura 1991 (Ukraine)



the man hunted an endless fox

stuck in a sedative fog
that will not shake the poppy seeds

leaves without skeletons are weightless
like a voice saying "sleep already"
won't budge

naked giants smoking a pipe
fog comes out of it

summoned grandmothers embroider for them shirts
made of the ground

naked giants smoking a pipe
their giant hearts will not be moved
