Instead

Instead of comments of the government haters

I prefer reading the books of Kafka.

It smells of the poison that comes from the papers

Bought by the zombies from the shops of Jimmy.

Still Freedom is a word of future,

Still daylight has not begun.

I hate darkness – and it’s mutual.

But darkness rules through Mr Jimmy.

This poem is only for Bulgarian readers.

It is not possible to publish it in “The times”.

Sorry, but the poet has not succeeded –

Sometimes he just misses the rhymes.
