ACCORDING TO A SPECIALIST'S OPINION
You are watching
a football match.
I am making salad
just for myself.
I know already
to be lonely is when
you are with somebody
who is not with you.
Kristin Dimitrova - a Bulgarian poet, writer, journalist and translator - was born in 1963 in Sofia. Graduated in English and American Studies from the Sofia University, she now works as an assistant professor at the Department of Foreign Languages.
