Purification

Marcin Majkowski

I’ve prepared
a bath
everything
precisely inspected
I’m pouring
the lotion
stirring cosmetics
carefully selected

A towel’s prepared
fragrant
rainbow colors
thready
It will soon
be used
after the bath
when I’m ready

There’s everything
necessary
for total
purification
There comes
an occasion
to take from dirt
liberation

Kitchen knife
razor blades
and the scalpel
precision
Which shall I choose
to purify myself?
It’s a hard
decision

The time has come
to remove
my clothes
from naked skin
I chose razor blades
by washing
I’ll turn
into
an inert mannequin

I close my eyes
I can see
a screen shining
in the
candle light
The foam's ready
strikes one’s eyes
with
a beautiful
red colors’ sight
