Don't open the little box <br />Heaven's hat will fall out of her <br /> <br />Don't close her for any reason <br />She'll bite the trouser-leg of eternity <br /> <br />Don't drop her on the earth <br />The sun's eggs will break inside her <br /> <br />Don't throw her in the air <br />Earth's bones will break inside her <br /> <br />Don't hold her in your hands <br />The dough of the stars will go sour inside her <br /> <br />What are you doing for God's sake <br />Don't let her get out of your sight<br /><br />Vasko Popa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-craftsmen-of-the-little-box/
