I AND MY SILENT COMPANION
BUDDHISM FOR EVERY DAY
RED RIDING HOOD AND THE WOLF
SCENT OF AFTERNOON RASIN
SOMETIMES TOGETHER AGAIN
9:55, 5 MINUTES BEFORE THE BEGINNING
HE KNOWS
DEAR PASSENGERS
HOPE AND I
THE TRACE
FAITH


FAITH

 

Stefcho from the neighborhood
believes in Batman.
He believes in Baba Yaga too,
in Santa Claus, the fairies,
the aliens, Dracula,
the seven dwarfs and
Snow White.

At night he prays:
‘Please, Batman,
kill Baba Yaga
who told Santa I
hated the fairies
who didn’t help me
when I dreamed that
Dracula was an alien
who turned into a dwarf
to kidnap Snow White.
Snow White, please stay
away from Dracula,
but most of all: don’t
get a crush on Batman.
He’s a badass killer, I tell you.
