To je teď můj poetický manifest. Příště U Kaštanu založím komunistickou stranu.
Though I see poems as leaves, of which I prefer the ones that depart the poet elegantly and fly off in the gentle breeze, almost undetected, littering in shades of yellow and red hues the path of his life, I savour poems as if drinking hot green tea, sharp fresh without a bitter tail on a cold winter night with a book in my hand.
I should not like to cause distress with my poems, not any more. Correspondingly, I do not want all my leaves to fall down in one bitter emotional blow. I want to create emotions. I think of poems as recipes which can ignite simple emotions in an orderly manner as if it were possible to hatch an ordered emotion. I have learnt that I like surprises in poems as in teas. But also I have learnt that though I seem to have always been inspired in poetry by myself--an awful narcissistic notion--sometimes, I have let my tea cool down a bit and later read in my poems that which was unrelated and new.
I should like to say that I want my poems to live without me. My task is to inspire, nothing less.
