Доброе утро 😊

April. And the air dry
As the shoulders of a water buffalo.

Grasshoppers scratch at the dirt,
rub their wings with thin legs
flaring out in front of the soldiers
in low arcing flights, wings a blur.

The soldiers don’t notice anymore,
seeing only the wreckage of the streets,
bodies draped with sheets, and the sun,
how bright it is, how hard and flat and white.

It will take many nails from the coffinmakers
to shut out this light, which reflects off everything:
the calloused feet of the dead, their bony hands,
their pale foreheads so cold, brilliant in the sun.
—Brian Turner

НАИВНОСТЬ

Снова руки стали тонкими
И ключицы сплошь прозрачными.
Я в простреле стёкол – звонкая,
Яркая, неоднозначная:

Вот искрится ярость мощная –
Как её мне исповедовать? –
Я псалмы пою всенощные,
Преисполненные ведами...

Впереди туманность звёздная:
Там воронки да созвездия.
…Я уже устала взрослою
Быть – хотела стать не ведая.
