Ja mrzim!

I Hate!

from the book Through Life in Verse (2010)

Ja mrzim dvorcei ne volim kule,tvrđave i vilei sva zdanjabez ljudske topline.Mrzim kazamate,glad i nasilje,ratove i krvoproliće.Mrzim gramzljivostsvu bez pardonai slatku fasadupokvarene duše.Ja mrzim sjaj,ljudskog licemjerstva,uvijeno u fino ruho bontona.

I hate castlesand do not love towers,fortresses and villasand all the buildingswithout human warmth.I hate dungeons,hunger and violence,wars and the shedding of blood.I hate greed,all of it, without regret,and the sweet façadeof a rotten soul.I hate the glitterof human hypocrisy,wrapped in the fine garb of etiquette.
