The Trapeze Swinger

Please, remember me happilyBy the rosebush laughingWith bruises on my chin, the time whenWe counted every black car passingYour house beneath the hillAnd up until someone caught us in the kitchenWith maps, a mountain range, a piggy bankA vision too removed to mention

But please, remember me fondlyI heard from someone you're still prettyAnd then they went on to sayThat the pearly gatesHad some eloquent graffitiLike "We'll meet again" and "Fuck the man"And "Tell my mother not to worry"And angels with their great handshakesWere always done in such a hurry

And please, remember me that HalloweenMaking fools of all the neighborsOur faces painted whiteBy midnight, we'd forgotten one anotherAnd when the morning came I was ashamedOnly now it seems so sillyThat season left the world and then returnedAnd now you're lit up by the city

So please, remember me mistakenlyIn the window of the tallest towerCalling passers-by but much too highTo see the empty road at happy hourGleam and resonate, just like the gatesAround the holy kingdomWith words like "Lost and found" and "Don't look down"And "Someone save temptation"

And please, remember me as in the dreamWe had as rug-burned babiesAmong the fallen trees and fast asleepAside the lions and the ladiesThat called you what you like and even mightGive a gift for your behaviorA fleeting chance to see a trapezeSwinger high as any savior

But please, remember me, my miseryAnd how it lost me all I wantedThose dogs that love the rain and chasing trainsThe colored birds above their runningIn circles around the well and where it spellsOn the wall behind St. PeterSo bright, on cinder gray, in spray paint"Who the hell can see forever?"

And please, remember me seldomlyIn the car behind the carnivalMy hand between your knees, you turned from meAnd said, "The trapeze act was wonderfulBut never meant to last", the clown that passedSaw me just come up with angerWhen it filled with circus dogs, the parking lotHad an element of danger

So please, remember me finallyAnd all my uphill clawingMy dear, but if I make the pearly gatesI'll do my best to make a drawingOf God and Lucifer, a boy and girlAn angel kissing on a sinnerA monkey and a man, a marching bandAll around a frightened trapeze swinger

Trapezan akrobata

Molim te, sjeti se me sretno,Smijući pored ružinog bokoraS modricom na bradi. Onaj putKad smo izbrojili svaki crni auto koji je prošaoTvoju kuću na dnu brdaI sve dok nas neko nije uhvatio u kuhinjiS mapama, planinskim lancem, kasica-prasicom.Vizija predavna da bi o nju razgovarali.

Ali molim te, sjeti se me rado.Čuo sam od nekoga da si još uvijek lijepa.I onda su rekliDa su kapije rajaImali rječit grafiti,Kao "vidimo se" i "jebi Boga"I "reci mojoj mami da se ne brine".I anđeli s njihovim velikim rukovanjemKoja su uvijek žureći bila urađena.

I molim te, sjeti se me na ta Noć vještica,Kako sam se folirao s komšijama,Naša lica bila su obojena bijelim.Kad je došla ponoć, zaboravili smo se,A kad je došlo jutro bio sam posramljen.Samo, sada mi se to čini baš glupo.To doba je prošlo, a onda se vratiloI sad si osvjetljena gradom.

Pa molim te, sjeti se me slučajnoU prozor najvišeg tornjaZovući prolaznike, ali mi je bilo predalekoDa vidim praznu cestu tokom "sretnog sata"Kako sija i odjekuje, baš kao kapijeOko svete kraljevineS rječima kao "izgubljeno i pronađeno" i "nemoj gledati dole"I "daj da neko spasi iskušenje".

I molim te, sjeti se me kao u onaj sanKoju smo sanjali kad smo bili pužuće bebeNad pavšim drvećem i čvrsto smo spavaliPored lavova i ženaKoji su te zvali šta god si htjela, čak su mogliDa ti daju poklon za dobro ponašanje:Jednu šansu da vidiš trapeznogAkrobata, u nebu kao svećenik.

Ali molim te, sjeti se mene i moje tugeI kako je izgubila sve što sam htio:Oni psi koji su voljeli kišu i da ganjaju vozove;Šarene ptice nad njihovu trkuKružeći bunara i tu gdje sričeNa zid iza Sv. Petra.Baš sjajno na sivo pepela boje u spreja:"Ma bolan ko može zauvjek da vidi?"

I molim te, sjeti se me rijetkoU auto iza karnevala,Moja ruka između tvojim koljenima, nisi me gledala,A rekla si "trapezno djelo bilo je divno,Ali brzo to prođe", klovn koji nas je prošaoVidio je kako sam se naljutio.Kad se puni s psima cirkusa, parkiralištePostaje baš opasno.

Molim te, sjeti se me posljednje,I sve moje penjanje uzbrdoDušo, ali ako stignem na kapije rajaPokušaću da nacrtam crtežBoga i Lucifera, dečka i djevojke,Anđela kako ljubi grešnika,Majmuna i čovjeka, muzičkog sastavaOkolo uplašenog trapeznog akrobata.
