FROM IDEA TO MEDIA
I need a space for a mistake
(Are you always having some troubles?)
empty I prefer without any disruptions
(Is that what you really need?)
a whole room with a view
on the perfect landscape of other’s behaviors
(Why you can’t be like others?)
a big enough place for a maneuver
of the smallest imperfections
(Do you think they are small?)
for choreography of everyday goofy,
Normal human’s errors
for a negative imprinted detail
on a neutral background
a dead pixel like a black hole
eating up the whole picture
because it’s not up to the norm
(How can I do it?)
The detail unable to be
perceived as a minor bug
because perfect order
needs to be restored
Detail before person
is the wrong kind of a perspective
without much reason
(You overreact about it)
The capacity is the forest
we are unavailable to see
of some unimportant
the trunk of a tree
(It’s big obstacle, for me)
that we fall over
irrelevant but unable
to be unseen
in a perfect eye
of the perfect beholder
judging, are you good enough?
(Are you good enough?)
by the things
that accidentally
drops down
instead of words that
can lift the others up
not put them down,
( I didn’t even think
about it you just made it out)
I just say what is it
in the form of a poem
written to everyone
able to understand
differences between
what matters
and what the hell not
(Yeah, it is so obvious,
don’t you see?)
because people are not
robots, androids, or so
like an Error 404
error is not found.
(But you always
have some on the stack)
Anywhere around.
Like you are broken
unfixable ballet
played for the wrong person
in a chamber ambient
for a reason you only know
There is no applause
There is no stage
Just a shower
of cold words
on your back
just like those
eyes piercing
your every step
on the eggshells
I don’t sell tickets
to that show
I even don’t know
that is running on air
in your gaze before
I even say something
anything wrong
(Without a context?)
Like you forgot
the word tolerance
for a spatial concept
of a mistake
a whole circle
around the person
having freedom
to be herself
even when tiredness
run the automatic pilot
in the head,
in the cabin of the self.
(Are you always like that?)
Can I have room, space
for a mistake?
I don’t need an answer
in the initiative I already take.
I created a place
where it is possible
in every small case.
End of discussion.
(But you just asked?)
The room is full
of the future steps.
Look out maybe
it will step on your
foot,
and you will
then look at the person
like it’s not accidental
life choreography fall
out of the tracks
for a microsecond
But a big fail.
Maybe try another
way, look deep.
Look at the mirror,
look at yourself.
And ask all the same.
(You overthink again
and overreact).
No, I am not.
I am just reclaiming
the room for a mistake.
