to Maya Cabal
This poem needed
to be written down
I prefer
The rosary threader
to the renowned professor
The kaleidoscope seller
to the boastful businessman
The father of three
putting food on the table
to the cardinal CEO
and his glitzy kings
I don’t try to choose
between scroungers and politicians
both reek of garbage.
Translation: Marinka Yossiffon.
