The Blind Spot
Maria Mitea Jul 18
There are so many clouds I can ignore,

There are so many rains I can make invisible, like
Tears that never get a chance to touch the air,

There are so many shadows I can **** like a samurai,
Without blinking a tiny bit,
Without sneezing, a queasy-dizzy,

But I ignore you,

You, I ignore,
                      -cause you are the one I must put in the Blind Spot

Atopos

the space
was invaded by his disappearance,
everything he touched felt so quiet, and alive,
more alive than i was,

(i sat on the bed, curled, like a dog,
with the nozzle on its paws,
eyes in tears)

the chair remained near the window,
closer to the flowers, and closer to the light,
i watched it as if it belonged to a king: -
this chair knew him better, - i never
could imprint his image, it was always slippery, like ice,
and,
now, my innocent eyes, like the best detectives, are
trying to reconstruct his body,
drawing its contour in the air, how you would
outline a dead person on the asphalt,

its scent, i follow,
how the air goes back and forth, from me to the chair,
from the chair to me, filling the invisible shape,

i could sense as if he were sitting
somewhere in the room, in a corner,
his skin, and his touch was there; it felt
as if he made love with the room, with the bed, and
the bed was in love with his body for letting
the memory of him to be its very essence, the
concave shape deepening in the mattress, and
the mattress was breathing as if it had its heart in it.

it was the ~fureur~ its very core,
the turbulence - it felt like the walls were built for
this kind of appearance,

the home without unequal images
it was just a cave waiting for the man
to be born again, and discover the fire

Не люби меня,
Прошу, не трогай
                             меня (словно
ядовитый плющ),
Но
позволь мне
пробежать босиком
по утренней
росе и погладить
виноградную лозу, когда
она цветёт,
позволь мне
напиться дневными
лучами,
и я уложу тебя
спать, как птицу в
гнезде,
для тебя
я буду держать
все летние дожди в
своих объятиях,

…только для тебя
я буду носить все
летние дожди, я
буду носить их
в своих объятиях,
как пылающее
сердце...

Достаточно дышать
Прикоснуться к тебе

Достаточно дышать
Пусть твой голос поёт

Достаточно дышать
Видеть, как ты
                        приходишь и
                уходишь
Ходишь как ангел

without a compass
Maria Mitea Jul 19
i watch the raindrops
how
they slid from the leaves,
and slide
without holding on to the air,
drawing circles
on the face of the
river,
from the Center
towards the outside,
without a compass,

the circles grow
and grow
until the sound of a
trumpet swallows them,
announcing the flight
of the morning
on the wings of the
horizon,

i watch the raindrops
how
they slid from the leaves,
and slide
without holding on to the air,
drawing circles
on the face of the
river,
from the Center
towards the outside,
without a compass,

the circles grow
and grow
until the sound of a
trumpet swallows them

Махорка
Maria Mitea Jul 20
Глаза блуждали
В ожидании,
Молча,
Всматриваясь
Напрасно,
Несмотря на это,
Он их расширил
Широко раскрыв, словно
Искал что-то интересное,
Очень
Осторожно,
Молча,

Как ленивый медведь, он положил её на старый деревянный стол.
Осторожно,
снова
складывая
свою смелость
поднимая
железные руки
обнажая
Осторожно,
жестяной кусочек,
скручивая
B тихом шуме
сигарету
Крепкой
низкосортной
рустики,
разновидность
великой­
чистки
голода
убивающей
уважительной
причины,
Одна пачка в день
Помогала, чертовски
Помогала.

Помогала пережить
холод,
и повседневный
труд, когда
солдаты и муравьи
голодали,
Махорка,
инсектицид
свободы.

О, черт.

Молча,
Тщетно глядя,
Несмотря на это,
Он держал их
                          широко открытыми,
Осторожно,
Молча.

Ask the leaves
Maria Mitea Jul 18
On a morning like this, lethargic and indifferent,
It is so easy to make me rich,
When the pain is moving slowly and smoothly, and
I hold on to you, like a monkey,
                                                         ­            Sob on me,
Make me the richest woman in the world,
Richer than Hetty Green,
Greedier than Hetty Green,

Can you see, my dear, how fast it is raining?
And the forest, a trickster, is washing its leaves,
Pretending that it cares while it is cheating with the rapper.

No one tells them that after the colors explode,
They will invade their hearts, like big Colonizers,
Will put names on them, and play cards,
Drink whiskey, laugh, and feed the earth, so after
They can ride their horses as a symbol of freedom and kindness,
Making donations and digging water wells,

On a morning like this, I believe,
Our story is like that of the gold seekers,
It is so easy to make me rich,
Make me the richest woman in the whole world,
Richer than Hetty Green,
Greedier than Hetty Green,

Dig me, baby, it is in my eyes,
Whisper in my ear, while the cold raindrops are touching my face,
They are hiding in my hair, on a morning like this,
Be my tears, lethargic and indifferent,
Ask the leaves, on a morning like this,
I hope they do not lose their mind,
                                                And will remember me in the spring

— The End —
