kvadrat jedne kore / a square of a bark

na mjestu gdje ljudi zalaze svakih 100 dana

i gdje jagode započinju sa svojim korijenjem

izbačeni posjetitelj nebeske postaje

za uspomenu je uhvatio jedan okvir

savršeni kvadrat uzet kao komad nečega

reljef prikladan da se u njega silom utisne lice

i da se premosti svjetlosni jaz

vidio je plošnost

a mislio da se radi o preslici svega što bi glava vidjela

kad bi drugačije upravljala očima

utrljao je prst u sliku

ostavio trag-dva po koži

kopirajući proces nastanka fotografije

pa nestao na jednoj od šetnji

u kojima je postao zabilježen u knjigama muklih promatrača

njegov album je bijel i mekan

često suviše

ali oči koje se u njemu nalaze

male su jezgre oštrog naboja

in a place where people gather every 100 days

and where strawberries begin with their roots

an expelled visitor from a heavenly station

captured a single frame as a keepsake

a perfect square taken as a piece of Everything

a relief suitable for a face to be pressed into by force

and for bridging the gap of light

he saw flatness

and thought it was a copy of everything the head would see

if it directed its eyes differently

he rubbed a finger into the image

left a mark or two upon the skin

copying the process by which a photograph comes into being

then vanished on one of the walks

in which he became recorded in the books of mute observers

his album is white and soft

often too much so

but the eyes found within it

are small cores of sharp charge Author of the text and photograph: Matej Čolig
