I LIVE IN PRAGUE Translated by Stephan Delbos and Filip Šenk I live in Prague
and maybe I’m rooted here
and I leer at the young
joyful and independent who play at life, that it’s true and what was
they know only from the
but not everything and to see more colorfully I got a glass of old port
from a Dutchman from
who serves in this vinohrady
and perhaps that is why I revealed to him in Dutch
that I lived ten years in
and could at least strip the
now I want to think of a real city of Prague but it doesn’t work
Everything is on a wave
because the fresh gentry still aren’t glutted
and no one knows where they
and what of the city will be
and what of the old will be
if the city will still want
or if it is me who will
