Alternativní poezie pro návštěvníky pražského metra?
Václav Pinkava
How "Europe's Capital of Culture" vaunted
befits this agar plate by 'cultures' haunted!
For if a Rose, misnamed, would smell as sweet
then Prague must needs be redolent of feet:-
(Praha from "práh", or threshold, got its name
back in the mists of time, the bards do claim)
Dear visitor to Prague, oh please don't fret
just don't inhale, engulfed by rancid sweat
Don't turn your nose up at Prague's glowing glory
try breathless awe, - better be safe, than sorry!
aneb
Kultury evropske velemesto
kultivuje kvasy jako testo,
pod prezdivkou ruze vune buji
pres prah zase nohy prekracuji
(proc zapirat puvod jmena toho)
zavon tedy Prahy velenoho...
Navstevniku Prahy, bud te lasky
nevdechuj, kdyz pot cpi z teto krasky,
neohrnuj nos nad krasou Prahy
zataj dech - je li ti zivot drahy !
