SUB-TITLES

Pan Cogito met Kristina
on oborishte street -
a couple of steps from her home

he talked to her in polish
she smiled back in bulgarian
but the talk best translates in english

i am tired - Pan Cogito said
i've been hearing this for ten years... - she replied in confusion

i am the prince of poets - Pan Cogito said
there is a bit of chaos in you - Kristina touched him

i am master of details - Pan Cogito said
details mix up the nature in us - Kristina whispered

don't you seek pain and image... - Pan Cogito said
and he embraced her... embayed her... embraced her -

- no, this is a poem with subtitles -
