::Aleksandar Kirkovski::
A Statement
The little lolitas in the streets
The whore in my bed
The porn in the Prime Minister’s book of poems,
The hunkies on the bus,
The boy and girl snuggled up,
The Sociology teacher,
The aspirin for the bump on your head
Arguments for the statement
All of the earth’s surface
Should be paved with concrete
All but a tiny patch to be left
For the Little Prince’s rose.
