Such philosophising didn\u2019t prevent any of them from living their own lives completely incorrectly. Sulis\u0142aw turned out to be the irrationally jealous kind, and he only ever recognised one true love in his entire life. He\u2019d stumbled onto a girl who was externally gentle but internally extremely ambitious, so that they clashed so intensely over their points of view that after a long, complicated, mentally suffocating love affair, they had to split up all the same, and against Sulis\u0142aw\u2019s wishes. It came out that although young Zawisza was radical, open-minded, and magnanimous on paper, in his core, he was identical to or even crazier than the men found in thousands of romance novels. It was bad enough that his sweetheart was an immense talent and devilishly hard-working, and though she might throw hard drinking and heavy smoking into the mix, she\u2019d still achieved more than Sulis\u0142aw ever had\u2014either at any time or throughout his entire life. This schoolgirl was constantly winning all kinds of international competitions, and she performed on stages around the world, because music doesn\u2019t respect international borders, and one\u2019s knack for it is relatively easily globalised. By contrast, only a handful of Polish youths had ever read any of Sulis\u0142aw\u2019s poems. When the house <\/em>was still in working order, one could hear her lively, high-heeled footsteps clatter before dawn, leading after them the horrible droning of her rolling suitcase as she dashed off again to the airport. Behind them, they left a poor man with wounded pride, in whom bubbled love, shame, and vanity, which is an explosive mixture. To satisfy her moods, Sulis\u0142aw freely agreed to candlelit dinners and roses and wanted more than anything to prove that he, Sulis\u0142aw, could achieve what no other man in the world could, if only he were given the time. What\u2019s more, the right woman would simply have believed in him, looked at him with her big eyes and repeated only, \u201cSulis\u0142aw, you\u2019re the smartest man in all the land.\u201d Because in fairness, the world is unjust\u2014Poland, to say nothing of the rest of the globe, didn\u2019t care much about Sulis\u0142awic young geniuses, because a gift (of whatever kind) must first be packaged into a form comprehensible to the masses and only then broadcast widely, preferably with the help of colourful video clips.<\/h5>\n
<\/h5>\n
Success usually begins from a happy coincidence, and then one thing simply leads to another: a TV star who\u2019d already made a name for himself ended up with a copy of Sulis\u0142aw\u2019s poems. This guy had a sharp eye and saw the righteous fury in Sulis\u0142aw\u2019s work, the kind of freshness no forty-year old can get squeeze of themselves with any formula, and he saw that this was worth owning. Worth swindling out of the hands of those who don\u2019t know what kind of lucre they\u2019ve got, or how to sell it to people, but who gift it, toss it away, scattering their young spirit\u2019s fiery scraps about themselves.<\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
