Dream of the Chair

Stroking wrinkle and skin
Of his rivets and skinny legs

On top of a hill
An art school on the other side
He must had been one of the chairs
To support the students for generations

Their trials and errors 
and meditations are written on his warps

Now he became an ascetic
Enduring the winds and the rains

Would he accept me?

In that minute I sat on him
facing toward the City of Bratislava
in the distance below me

Birds are flying
Leaves are trembling in the breeze
Small white flowers blossoming
Trees have soft shades

At night
He must look up at
Innumerable stars

I sighed
That's why he is here...

In his acceptance
I let my body sink
Into the dream of the chair
