The Polish Bridesmaid

Europe
east-west
peninsula of words
witches’ Sabbath of myths

Now to take the bull by the horns!
Curiosity and industry
drive the herds
crossing the Danube within

Shifting boundaries
arbitrary maps
are my only aid
in the war with space

Greeks and barbarians
battle tongue against tongue
lines are drawn
and statues sculpted

Diaspora of souls
caught by gravity
we all fall towards
the Day of Atonement
