The wink at history of literature and the parodistic tone are aimed at young people, who have already encountered these poets and their serious poems, which serve as the basis of parodies, many times as school subjects. Humor and virtuosity play a major role in these intimate and atmospheric songs – worthy of Karinthy's curved mirror. The cycle is dedicated to the soprano Éva Bátori, a dedicated apostle of contemporary vocal music, and to the composer-pianist fellow, György Selmeczi.
I. Simplicity (Szabolcska Mihály)
II. Dwarf-heads (Ady Endre)
III. Pentecost doggerel about the raindrop (Szabó Lőrinc)
