Book Details

In this captivating collection of poetry, Leonard Górski contemplates his life—and life in general, offering poems that evoke images and memories and awaken emotions within its readers

Psychographography

Sketch five-second portraits I wanted

Faces that the palm spontaneously draws,

Either those dream women or friendly men

Without jealousy or other faults.

I came up with a lack of deadline of a

New field which I have called

Psychographography

And that's how I sketch drawings ineptly,

Without the master's hand,

To save a little bit of

This, the beauty which surround us.

And scrape a few words

To save from oblivion.
