Sve generacije pre mene

Sve generacije pre mene
darivale su me, malo-po malo, kako bih se odjednom pojavio ceo

ovde u Jerusalimu, kao sinagoga
ili dobrotvorna institucija.
To obavezuje. Moje ime je
ime mojih darodavaca.
To obavezuje.

Probližavam se godinama
u kojim je moj otac umro.
Moj testament iskrpljen je mnogim zakrpama.
Moram svakodnevno da menjam svoj život
i svoju smrt kako bih ispunio sva proročanstva
za mene prorečena, da ne ispadnu laži.
To obavezuje.

Prešao sam četrdesetu.
Ima poslova koje zbog toga
ne mogu da dobijem. Da sam u Aušvicu
ne bi me ni slali na rad,
već pravo u gasnu komoru.
To obavezuje.

-Jehuda Amihaj

Moje pesme, moji snovi

Ok, well this was my thought: 50,000 years ago, there are not even a million people on the planet. 10,000 years ago, there's, like, two million people on the planet. Now there's between five and six billion people on the planet, right? Now, if we all have our own, like, individual, unique soul, right, where do they all come from? You know, are modern souls only a fraction of the original souls? 'Cause if they are, that represents a 5,000 to 1 split of each soul in the last 50,000 years, which is, like, a blip in the Earth's time. You know, so at best we're like these tiny fractions of people, you know, walking... I mean, is that why we're so scattered? You know, is that why we're all so specialized?
