A paraphrase of Czech limericks for children Kolo kolo mlýnský (Mill Wheel) and Zlatá brána otevřená (Golden Gate is Open).
Ironic paraphrases of the limericks for children Kolo kolo mlýnský (Mill Wheel) and Zlatá brána otevřená (Golden Gate is Open) go along with thematic images: the shapes of wheels in the streets, the facades of houses, the signboards of cinemas, Prague' Powder Gate under the scaffolding. To the line "tomu hlava sejde" ("whose head will lose focus"), an inattentive young man crashes into the scaffolding, while turning his head to look at a girl.
