22 de ani fără 10 secunde

I am- shop in Krakow (by me)
La 22 de ani fără 10 secunde
cu venele-n ploaie noaptea nu mai am nimic altceva de făcut
decât să alerg ca o stafie printre luminile oraşului
mi-e atât de frig că halucinez şi după mine aleargă
o grămadă de grase în blugi skinny
şi elefanţi cu pantaloni roz
Te rog toarnă-mi o cafea fierbinte pe creier
să-mi încălzesc circuitele
deja întunericul se revarsă de-a valma în capul meu
şi nu mai aud decât fericirea
care circulă prin liniile telefonice de sărbători
La 22 de ani fara 10 secunde
dorm cu mickey mouse şi vărs lapte pe tricou
aproape în fiecare dimineaţă
încercam să redau în acest poem
o înaltă criză adultă de maturizare emoţională
dar m-am oprit fiindcă am uitat sfârşitul
care cred că era legat de vise emoţii şi alte chestii mature
probabil voiam să spun  că
acum nu mai am nimic altceva de făcut
decât să alerg cu venele-n ploaie noaptea
să mă prefac preocupată de problemele ţării
în timp ce găsesc soluţii pentru criza financiară
şi adopt o mimică anxios-depresivă
însă nu pot face asta momentan
deoarece trebuie să lipesc
cablul de care m-am împiedicat azi noapte
în timp ce făceam baloane de săpun
deoarece eu
la 22 de ani fără 10 secunde
sunt un adult mare şi responsabil

Nightwatch in Krakow

The Cathedral 


Krakow's street lights

When ghosts of Krakow come to life

Enlighten my brain with your magic

Their spirits will never depart

Lift me up higher, I wanna touch the moon

No, you'll never catch the nightwatcher

Wawel castle by night

"Moonlight falling over me
Sail on where the shadows hide"

Shine a light

Lasciare ogni speranza...

The market

Black skies above Poland... and Myslovitz in my ears

I am up in the clouds I am up in the clouds And I can't and I can't come down



 





Myslovitz are a polish band I discovered somewhere in 2005 and rediscovered them when I found out I'm going to Poland. They took their name from the city where they belong, called Myslowice. This song has also an English version called Sound of solitude. They are very appreciated in Poland.


 

Lost somewhere in Krakow (photo story)

Easter morning. Strange feeling of having almost nothing to do. Haven't been like this for such a long time. I almost forgot how it is not being busy. In the last few months I've been on the run.Always on the road, always running after trains and searching the shortest path to arrive... somewhere. Now I'm telling you my story of Krakow, by day and by night. This city has a style, a different way of being. An old center surrounded by modern buildings and Vistula river crossing it. Spring air, fresh mood, blue sky and so nice people. We salute you Krakow.
Please, follow the sun. If you do this, you'll never lose the skyline.
Arriving in Krakow, we met the little blue dragon

Say a little prayer for those departed

Please, don't turn your back to the light...

The sound of the drums beating in my heart. 4ever

Guitar bite @ Hard Rock Cafe
No more Iron Maiden in Bucharest this summer. I wish I were in Warsaw on 10th June...

Levitation. Yes, he was doing it for real!

My roof, my shelter, my quiet... in the city center.


The door of my dreams is locked. Knock first.


Down the stairs you'll find the truth.

Vistula river

Go and save the princess!

A place to hide

Up in the sky

Yes I turned back to my army and left the fight. Oh... so much war and lost lives. What for?

Do not open. The dragon lies right there!

This happened on my B-day


Modern city area

I come to life by night and kill all the evil-doers. Just for my own amusement
