Test

You drew the pig:
Toward the top of the paper, you are positive and optimistic.
Toward the middle, you are a realist.
Toward the bottom, you are pessimistic, and have a tendency to behave negatively.

Facing left, you believe in tradition, are friendly, and remember dates (birthdays, etc.)
Facing right, you are innovative and active, but don't have a strong sense of family, nor do you remember dates
Facing front, you are direct, enjoy playing devil's advocate and neither fear nor avoid discussions.

With many details, you are analytical, cautious, and distrustful.
With few details, you are emotional and naive, they care little for details and are a risk-taker.

With less than 4 legs, they are insecure or are living through a period of major change.
With 4 legs showing, they are secure, stubborn, and stick to their ideals.

The size of the ears indicates how good a listener you are.
The bigger the better. You drew medium sized ears, you are a good listener

The length of the tail indicates the quality of your sex life.
And again more is better! You did not draw a tail :)

Common Swift

Common Swift(Apus apus L.)
This bird is special in many ways. It's the last to arrive at its northern breeding grounds and the first to leave. For a bird of its size, it can live a long time, and swifts have to known to live for as long as 21 years. It can survive bad weather by entering what is called torpor, a coma-like condition in which its metabolism slows to almost nothing. The most amazing thing is the adaptation of the species to flight. The body is the perfect development for flying in the air. The Common Swift does everything in the air, except breeding. It finds its prey there and feeds on the wing. It preens and plays in the air. It sleeps there most of the time in its life. It mates and collects nesting material on the wing. The wings are narrow but long which makes it a rapid and precise hunter of its targets such like flying insects and spiders. From quiet waters it drinks while flying or takes showers when its bill dives and splashes water.The Common Swift return to the breeding places in their old colony approximately the same time each year, around the 1st of May in central Europe. It is faithful to its breeding place so that the pairs may breed together for many years. When one partner doesn't come back from Africa or dies during its stay, its place will be immediately taken by another bird of the same sex. Swifts lay 2-3 eggs and breed and hatch the chicks together. In these days they fly late until dark, while the non breeders of a colony assemble and fly high in the sky to sleep there on the wing. At the end of July the young will fly out, mostly right after sunset and will never come back to the nest. They need no exercises in flying and after a few moments they practice as well as the adults. Just in time around the 1st of August the parents will leave Central Europe for Africa. Swifts breed in holes of caves or hollows of trees. Nowadays they mostly use holes in walls or a free space under the eves of houses. They accept nest boxes too and don't fear humans. It is easy to place a nest box in a window. The hole must be directed to the open air, of which the bird needs some in front of the nesting place. When leaving the box, the Swifts don't fly up into the air, but just jump down, and while falling a couple of meters, they get the necessary speed to fly. The boxes should be about 30x20 cm and of 15 cm height. The hole is of 5 cm diameter and placed 3 cm above the bottom and 5 cm away from the fringe of one side.

Species Common Swift Apus apus
Family Apodidae
Order Apodiformes
Size length 16-17 cm, wingspan 38-40 cm
Weight 35-56 grams
Color blackish brown, whitish throat
Sex alike
Flight acquaintance not yet measured, 190,000 km in one year estimated
Speed gliding 5-14, powerflight 11-28 and when playing up to 40-60 meters per second
Age average is about 7 years, the oldest reported ringed bird was 21 years old (see ApusList-No. 0069, with a photograph of this bird)
Food flying insects and spiders; a feeding pair catches about 50 g every day
Enemies Hobbies, sometimes small mammals which hunt in the attic, cars when the weather is rainy and the birds fly low
Pair bonding monogamous seasonal pairing
Nest in crevices and cracks of rocks and houses, hollows of trees, nest boxes
Eggs 2-3, 3,5 grams, white, both parents breed 19-20 days
Young ready to fly when wings are 16 cm long (after about 40 days)
Bad weather birds reduce temperature and stay on nest, young can survive a couple of days without feeding; nonbreeders fly to regions with better weather conditions and return then to the colony.

Edge

Edge

The woman is perfected.
Her dead
Body wears the smile of accomplishment,
The illusion of a Greek necessity
Flows in the scrolls of her toga,
Her bare
Feet seem to be saying:
We have come so far, it is over.
Each dead child coiled, a white serpent,
One at each little
Pitcher of milk, now empty.
She has folded
Them back into her body as petals
Of a rose close when the garden
Stiffens and odors bleed
From the sweet, deep throats of the night flower.
The moon has nothing to be sad about,
Staring from her hood of bone.
She is used to this sort of thing.
Her blacks crackle and drag.

HALINA POSWIATOWSKA (poems translated by Maya Peretz)

All my deaths

how many times can one die of love
the first time it was the bitter taste of earth
bitter taste
tart flower
carnation burning red

the second time - only the taste of space
white taste
cool wind
echo of wheels barreling on

the third time the fourth time the fifth time
I died with more routine less exalted
the four walls of the room supine
and above me your sharp profile

********************************
come here sweetheart
we'll chat
my lips in your fur
your claws in the stars

you tear golden furs to shreds
I hear the Universe purr
in the pit of your throat

it left us all alone
my lips - in your fur
a star in your eye

we dodge its rotation
slyly thinking nothing of time
*********************************
If you don't come

the world will be poorer
by this little bit of love
by the kisses which won't sail
through the open window

the world will be cooler
by that color
which with a sudden rush
won't burn my cheeks

the world will be more quiet
by the frantic pounding
of a heart straining to fly
by the creaking of doors
thrown ajar

the vibrating living world
will freeze
into a nearly perfect
geometric shape
********************************
last poem

this is the last poem
for you
there'll be none more
I said
then
I closed the letter with a stamp
and dropped
the square flat heart
into the mailbox narrow slot

now people tread with caution
around the letterbox
and keep asking
what's that
did a bird move into
the letterbox
for it beats its wings on the sides
and nearly
sings

Sadness

I froze on walk. I felt sadness. Spring does't it want to come.

I does not gets the idea with tenses life and world.Round only evil.

Theatre

Today i was here in theatre. Now....I think that theatre is very interesting.
