The Prisoners Of The Little Box by Vasko Popa
Open little box
We kiss your bottom and cover Keyhole and key
The whole world lies crumpted in you It resembles everything Except itself
Not even your clear-sky mother Would recognize it anymore
The rust will eat your key Our world and us there inside And finally you too
We kiss your four sides And four corners And twenty-four nails And anything else you have
Open little box
