Philips for Christmas
Hungary is far away…
by Attila József
Hungary is far.
Hungary is over the mountains.
From there you would come
with birds, singers in short skirts,
it would be dawn,
airy,
light,
nice, clean anvils would clink in the silence.
Sir, haven’t you met Hungary?
I know your tongue is heavy.
I know my heart is heavy.
Sir, haven’t you met Hungary?
Girls, many of them, are running,
as the morning wind,
with hair streaming in the Eastern sky.
And she’s kneading a fat milk loaf,
she’s prettier than the evening shadow of a lily.
Sir, haven’t you met Hungary?
It’s autumn there,
in our tiny gardens
swishing dry flowers are planted
by God.

Just what a mother always wanted! It could have been worse, a vacuum cleaner / hoover.

I may not give it to her, though. It's so **** here on my coach. I think I'll keep it. I mean her.

Are you talking about an iron being ****? Do you still have a hangover? I was expecting you to write the most wonderful Christmas poem for your mum and you write about an iron being ****? What was your Christmas wish I wonder?

I wonder if he's got an imprent from a hot iron scorched onto his face courtesy of his mother's appreciation for her gift?

Very funny, Woody. Tell us what you got your wife. Anything romantic by the way?

An iron! I said it it wasn't appropriate for your mother but I didn't say anything about the wife!

Wow, you are such a hard working boy! I'd love to see your muscles. Don't tell me that you are going to post a picture of your muscles! I bet your wife must be really proud of them.I don't get the New Zealand thing. Something to do with a bathing suit? I definitely need another clue.
