What is happening now is literally, an uncontrolled impulse, maybe even the same “Impulse” from you?

I have carried the intension of writing these few words for a long time now, which for me are more remarkable than I thought before, tempering the present, or maybe better even the past, which brought pain, o yes that must be fought within ourselves! Until now the word “Impulse” has been missing from my life, you introduced it to me. O irony, I paid for not only five zloty, thank you. Mr. S. you are someone, who a few days after our, unfortunately short, encounter, I longed to fall in love in, learn to love, or maybe – feel love. Rebuild my world, this I am sure of. Certainty, uncertain…

There are no coincidences, at least I don’t believe in them. “Everything that happens once, may never occur again, but that which happens twice, will definitely happen a third time”. Maybe we will be able to meet again? Maybe you will send me another impulse? Maybe

Thank you

You people from Torun are impossible…

However, it is very nice to meet someone who in so many matters, share similar or even identical views.

At the beginning, when you asked if I liked poetry, I was very sceptical, which was probably noticeable. I expect you probably see such a reaction quite often. I must tell you, that I took the book only because you are a charming person, and it seems you are completely aware of that. Your soft look, delicate gestures and lowered voice… And all so thought through…

But that’s good, that you make use of your personal charm for a higher purpose, that is nothing bad. I often do the same myself.

At least 5 zlotys was not wasted. I think that this book is worth a lot more. It has been two days since we met, and I have already read the book three times and I am impressed. I regret that it is so short.

Concerning the style, I will only say that the book is written in a simple and clear way, it’s easy to read which is the most important. I will allow myself to focus on the contents, which in my opinion deserve greater attention.

Maybe this book was supposed to be an impulse forcing people to think about the actual state of things, as you yourself write. For me it is the confirmation of what I believe in. I do not need to be forced to think, especially not to thinking which leads to the correct way of grasping reality. I am glad that in this modern world of screaming chaos, there are still people who in such a beautiful way admire the virgin beauty of Earth and feel her primal pulse, which is subdued and shouted over by means of civilization, and can only be heard by a few. I am glad, that there are still thinking people, ready to give something from themselves, and not set on mindless consumption, who absorb everything they come across.

I think that what you wrote is beautiful. Your philosophy of life is so simple, but at the same time, contains such a deep sense of existence. If what you wrote is truthful, then you are a person with a very beautiful soul.

I also wanted to thank you for your courage. I also write a little and compose on the piano, but my “sweat” always ends at the bottom of the drawer. I do not have the courage to show my work to anybody. Maybe because it is so personal.

I would like to read all you works, I hope that will be possible. I have not read such a good book for a long time. You have awakened my appetite for more:)

You have a nice Internet page, a Little girly, but let’s say, a poet has the right:)

At the end I would like to tell you that you have beautiful name. Stanislaw, like my father.

I send you greetings and I wish you further successes

One of a million Goddesses.

Hello, a long time ago, a friend of mine tried to convince me to write you a letter, but I did not have the courage. I bought a book of poems from you for the symbolic price of one zloty. I was reading Jelinek’s “The Piano Teacher” on the central market square in Wroclaw. I later told my friend about our short but pleasant meeting. Your poems are not easy. Very personal, they encourage to refection… hmm and I started reading poetry, I recommend Sylvia Plath. I hope you continue to gain fans, and give out such smiles as the one you gave me in Wroclaw.

Hello again.

I regret that we had to meet today, on such a day when I did not even have a zloty on me, because I am tormented by my conscience, and other than with a smile, I had nothing I could thank you with. I read the book “Impulse” in one breath and I didn’t even notice when I finished work. All the way home, I was thinking about what I could write to you to thank you. There are many things I should mention. Concerning “Impulse”, and the beginning I had the impression that it is very chaotic, but when I read it to the end, it all fell together as a whole. I have one question, are the happening describe authentic, does the book describe you, someone you know or is it literary fiction? I don’t know if you reply to emails but I did consider that this question may not be answered. As for our meeting… I will remember it for a long time because you made a very positive impression on me. I do not recall knowing anybody as “warm” as you. Magic (I don’t want to exaggerate, but I cannot find another word) just emanates from you.

If you would like to publish this letter on your page then you can cut this out. I think that you are a very talented person and I would like to pay my price for the book. I expect that we will not be given another chance to meet so please send me your account number or an address to which I could send the money, because thank you is usually not enough. I would also like to ask for more… you write poems right? Where and how could I buy them?

At the end I Just wanted to add, that no one, in a long time, has embarrassed me like you did!:) And I am wondering how to sign off, so that you know who I am.

I wish you everything that is the Best under the Sun! And I am looking forward to an answer concerning your poetry.

Ah… the one who did not, for anything, want to give you her name:)

Dear Mr. Stanislaw, I sincerely thank you for your present of a wonderful book. It is not every day in a SKM train that a stranger, although kind, gives me a book of his. I honestly admit, I was shocked, positively of course. When you entered the train I noticed your very sympathetic expression and kind, warm look. That is why I let myself look at you for a little longer, you also looked at me and I unfortunately cowered, but it was nice. I am slowly getting to know the contents of your intriguing book and I promise to share my personal thoughts with you. It would be wonderful if you would honour me with a meeting in person so that I could learn about your remaining works. I do not want to read articles about you in the internet, I would like to get to know you in person as exchanging information face to face is much more interesting.

Yours sincerely,

Pawel

Warm greetings:) Almost two weeks ago, we met on bus nr 40, I remember sitting at the back between two people… I was going home and I don’t know the moment, when I received “Impulse” from you… It has been a long time since I have been surprised in such a nice way. Here in Poland, people do not smile at each other, let alone “chat to”…

Sincerely Joanna

Hello,

I received your book yesterday in the Blue City shopping centre (I was at work in one of the shops). I have to admit, that I did not expect it to have such an impact on me. However, I read it immediately on my way from work. You have a very interesting perspective, one I have not heard before. I meet various very interesting and positively ‘crazy’ people, but I have not come across anything like that before. Interesting information, of which I had no clue. Although I do not agree with everything (maybe I have too little knowledge on the subject), but a lot of it is food for thought.

I am honestly positively surprised and I am sure that I will lend the book to many others.

I am curious, from where do you have such knowledge and views?

PS. I was so surprised that I received a book from you…hmmm….I simply lost my tongue;)

Yours sincerely,

K

Hello,

I received a book “Impulse” from you today, after I told you that I will not have the time to read it, as I am completely absorbed by my pregnancy, and by the little person living inside me.

You gave it to me with a dedication, which is what influenced me to immediately start reading the book. I have finished reading it and I must admit that it has made an impression on me. I don’t exactly know why I was not able to put it down; maybe it’s the fact that you have the courage to write about your thoughts so directly and clearly.

Yours sincerely Justyna (a new fan of your books)

It was as follows: I was to start work AT 15:00. I was at the shopping mall one hour early, as usual, and I went to a coffee shop, where I ordered a small black, lit a cigarette and took out a book. Unfortunately, as always, the love of my life didn’t find me there. My replacement/supervisor who was working the first shift that day and was leaving to go home, didn’t fail to tell me off thoroughly for a favour I had done for a friend. He threatened me with the loss of my job. The day was wet and gray. I didn’t feel like doing anything. I even had a passing thought that I don’t want to live anymore. When I was reading comics in the internet to kill the time, a lively guy ‘dropped’ into my shop; his fast movements and smooth talk made me assume that this man was a salesperson, who, in a moment, will want to offer my company a great deal with his company. Only of course until he finds out that I am only an employee and not the owner, at which point he will lose interest in me as a human being. It turned out that this person wrote a book and is distributing it personally. I was so numb and last in my thoughts (even though they were very slow) I didn’t understand a single word he said about the book (which didn’t stop me from nodding and smiling) other than that it “aspires to overthrow the system” which appealed to me very much. The way in which I was asked for money was original. And my comic was coming to an end. So I gave him a tenner. And started to read. I have read it, and still at work, I am writing this. I feel, Stanislaw, that I had been waiting for you for a long time. Thank you, you have helped me remember the good old times, and I am determined to revive my esoteric habits. I have a goal in sight, which I was missing only a few hours ago. I want to live again :-)

Sincere greetings and thank you again, game salesperson from CH Wilensk

PS. Sales went awful due to my reading, which I’ll probably hear about from my boss tomorrow, but I now know exactly how to handle him ;-)

Hello,

I am just reading IMPULSE…

I heard about you from a friend, it seems you were in Warsaw recently and that you went by PINKO and spoke to MARIOLA…

Anyhow, reading IMPULSE I was very pleased to see that you also know about the ACTUAL REALITY that surrounds us. I am surprised, maybe even furious, that people really do not care. It is possible to find out everything…if you only want to… but an alarm should sound in you, that something is not right!!! For a long time I have been reading ALEX COLLIER, ICK, RAMTH, JESSICA SCHAB IS SIMPLY WONDERFUL…..

There is no one to talk to about this, people really do not want to know…and I would like to scream to the world that the only truth is love and if every one of us would long to become this love then we could change everything for the better and be at whole with the universe… and that animals are our children and nature our friend…I had such a vision once…..

Hello,

Thank you for the book and your web page :). In life, nothing happens by coincidence, nor do we meet people on our way by coincidence.

May the White Brothers and the Family from Pleiades always be with us.

Hats off to you Ula
