"In My Language I Am Smart"

Here's quite a listening experience: Dragan Todorovic's poem "In My Language I Am Smart". It's got to be the most powerful expression in poetry I've come across of the linguistic alienation involved in immigrating to a foreign land of a foreign tongue. I teach immigrants English for a good part of my living, so it's quite emblematic of an experience I deal with a lot. I'm sure the memory of this poem will stay with me for good.
