KAPUSCINSKI, Ryszard


How many more worlds?

Whosoever creates his own world will live on.

God lives – He created His own world,

Homer lives, and Michaelangelo and Mozart.

Raphael created myriad fiures – they all live.

Hieronymous Bosch’s monstrosities seethe.

Renoir’s women display their flesh – beautiful.

Chagall’s roosters crow, his calves gambol about the sky.

Don Quixote mends his arms, Sancho Panza philosophizes

Still.

How many more worlds will arise?

How many characters?

How many animals?

A second Noah’a Ark?
