The End of Raven, by Edgar Allan Poe's Cat

On a night quite unenchanting,
when the rain was downward slanting,
I awakened to the ranting
of the man I catch mice for.

Tipsy and a bit unshaven,
in a tone I found quite craven,
Poe was talking to a Raven perched
above the chamber door.

"Raven's very tasty," thought I,
as I tiptoed o'er the floor,
"There is nothing I like more".

Soft upon the rug I treaded,
calm and careful as I headed
Towards his roost atop that dreaded
bust of Pallas I deplore.

While the bard and birdie chattered,
I made sure that nothing clattered,
Creaked, or snapped, or fell, or shattered,
as I crossed the corridor;

For his house is crammed with trinkets,
curios and weird decor -
Bric-a-brac and junk galore.

Still the Raven never fluttered,
standing stock-still as he uttered,
In a voice that shrieked and sputtered,
his two cents' worth - "Nevermore."

While this dirge the birdbrain kept up,
oh, so silently I crept up,
Then I crouched and quickly leapt up,
pouncing on the feathered bore.

Soon he was a heap of plumage,
and a little blood and gore-
Only this and not much more.

"Oooo!" my pickled poet cried out,
"Pussycat, it's time I dried out!
Never sat I in my hideout
talking to a bird before.

How I've wallowed in self-pity,
while my gallant, valiant kitty
Put and end to that damned ditty" -
then I heard him start to snore.

Back atop the door I clambered,
eyed that statue I abhor,
Jumped - and smashed it on the floor.

Welcome to Sweden.

Juče Kalemegdan...

danas okružni zatvor u Subotici. All in a day's work! ;) Bilo je i krajnje vreme da dobijem svoj kriminalni dosije. Na šta bi mi inače biografija ličila?


Anyway, ovo je lepo palo... Mmm... Kalemegdan... sunce... izležavanje na travi... podseća na Brisel... :) Večeras, potraga za nekim tragom kulture i života u Subotici...
- kriminalka

Posle Olomouca, Bratislavskog jutra, popodnevnog sunčanja u Budimpešti i promatranja golubova... Dozvoljavam sebi samo po stranicu dnevno Assmannove knjige. Još pretty much u uvodnom delu, ali osvetlao je obraz kad iznenada (o svom pristupu radu) reče:
"...having turned to ancient Egypt thirty-five years ago with questions that are all too easily forgotten as soon as one enters an academic discipline. Disciplines develop questions of their own and by doing so function as a mnemotechnique of forgetting with regard to concerns of a more general and fundamental character. In this book I try to remember and recover the questions, not to answer them."

Olomouc, CZ...

David Zissenwine! aaaaa :)
i dobila sam recomended reading list/authors! :) Meesa happy... Sad opasno započinjem svoju borbu za opstanak čovečanstva, sa Ericssonom, Deweyem i družinom.
usput, jedna lepa misao:
"...u moru bezvrijedne suvremene buke koju još samo krajnje ignorantni nazivaju glazbom..."

Brno, CZ...

One dead man and many train stops later, internet discovered in the strange habitat somewhere.. one hour from my hopeful destination. No seats available on buses in the next two days, I have a train ticket, but this day's experience taught me I might need to fight for actually getting there - especially since one of the stops is: "Nezamyslice"! :) divno...

pricica sto mi je u glavi zahvaljujuci s. i zasluzuje da oplemeni ovo Brnsko iskustvo-
"...na himalajima domoroci koji rade kao nosaci planinarskim ekspedicijama cesto stanu u sred onog snega i leda, sednu sa svim stvarima i nece da se mrdnu dalje. kad ih planinari izbezumljeni pitaju zasto, oni kazu da cekaju da ih dusa sustigne, jer su isli prebrzo i dusa im je ostala negde iza."

p.s. e da, ona druga bakica je pravila lutke...

...kraj.

U pokusaju smanjenja geografsko-psihicke inkonsistencije (-2 sata sna), prodajem dusu valima moderne tehnologije. eto... ne radi enter. Budimpesta, zeleznicka stanica, cekaona sa ljustecim zidovima i dve bakice koje strikaju. svaka na svojoj strani. :)
