Now a short poem,
"Poems on Poland."

00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:08.620 align:middle line:90%


00:00:08.620 --> 00:00:13.660 align:middle line:84%
I read poems on Poland
written by foreign poets.

00:00:13.660 --> 00:00:19.690 align:middle line:84%
German and Russians not only
have guns but also ink, pens,

00:00:19.690 --> 00:00:25.030 align:middle line:84%
some heart, and a
lot of imagination.

00:00:25.030 --> 00:00:28.150 align:middle line:84%
Poland and their
poems reminds me

00:00:28.150 --> 00:00:32.080 align:middle line:84%
of an audacious
unicorn which feeds

00:00:32.080 --> 00:00:35.200 align:middle line:90%
on the wall of tapestries.

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.330 align:middle line:84%
It is beautiful,
weak, and imprudent.

00:00:40.330 --> 00:00:44.320 align:middle line:84%
I don't know what the mechanism
of illusion is based on,

00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:49.090 align:middle line:84%
but even I, a sober
reader, am enraptured

00:00:49.090 --> 00:00:53.740 align:middle line:84%
by that fairy tale
defenseless land on which

00:00:53.740 --> 00:00:58.780 align:middle line:84%
feed blood eagles, hungry
emperors, the Third

00:00:58.780 --> 00:01:02.220 align:middle line:90%
Reich, and the third wrong.

00:01:02.220 --> 00:01:04.000 align:middle line:90%
