Zakaj nisem slikar

Nisem slikar, ampak delavec.

Zakaj? Prepričan sem, da bi bil raje

slikar, pa vendar nisem. No, poglejte,

na primer, Simon Jugovic

ravno začenja novo sliko. Skočim k njemu.

"Sedi in si nalij," pravi.

Pijem. Pijeva. Dvignem

pogled. "Samega sebe imaš na sliki."

"Ja, nekaj je pač moralo biti"

"Aha" Grem in dnevi tečejo

in spet se oglasim. Slika

napreduje, grem, dnevi

minevajo. Skočim k njemu. Slika

je končana. "Kje pa je tvoj AVTOPORTRET?"

Od njega so ostale samo

črke. "Bil sem odveč", pojasni Simon.

 

Pa jaz? Nekega dne mi pade na pamet,

da bi se naslikal. Narišem skico

svojega obraza. Narišem risbo

svojega obraza. Kmalu imam

cel zvezek poln svojih podob.

In še en. Treba pa bo še

mnogo, ne lastnih podob, marveč

groznih poskusov lastnih podob, ki pričajo

o tem, kako hudo je živeti. Dnevi minevajo.

Stvar je  celo v barvi, toda, žal, res nisem slikar. Moja

podoba je končana, jaz pa še vedno

nisem niti približno zadel samega sebe. Tako

imam dvajset slik na katerih me ni.

Dam jim naslov LASTNE PODOBE. In nekega dne

zagledam v galeriji Simonovo sliko,

ki se imenuje AVTOPORTRET.

bnnnWhy I Am Not a Painter

 

by Frank O'Hara

I am not a painter, I am a poet.
Why? I think I would rather be
a painter, but I am not. Well,

for instance, Mike Goldberg
is starting a painting. I drop in.
"Sit down and have a drink" he
says. I drink; we drink. I look
up. "You have SARDINES in it."
"Yes, it needed something there."
"Oh." I go and the days go by
and I drop in again. The painting
is going on, and I go, and the days
go by. I drop in. The painting is
finished. "Where's SARDINES?"
All that's left is just
letters, "It was too much," Mike says.

But me? One day I am thinking of
a color: orange. I write a line
about orange. Pretty soon it is a
whole page of words, not lines.
Then another page. There should be
so much more, not of orange, of
words, of how terrible orange is
and life. Days go by. It is even in
prose, I am a real poet. My poem
is finished and I haven't mentioned
orange yet. It's twelve poems, I call
it ORANGES. And one day in a gallery
I see Mike's painting, called SARDINES.
