Charm
for Sarah

find the plum in the bottle of brandy
hear the wish inside the bone
watch the blossom become the berry
read the grace-note that wants to be sung

see the solution inside the enigma,
royal jelly drip into the comb,
work the multiplier into the figure
touch some yeast that’s begun to foam

wrap the grub inside the pupa
sniff the bonfire about to burn
hum the cradle-song tucked in old papers
trace the opening line of the poem

wait till the damsel-fly breaks through the rushes
trust the clown to turn cartwheels alone
hear the cell splitting cell in the darkness
feel the embryo safe in your womb.

Descantec
pentru Sarah

gaseste pruna in sticla de coniac
asculta dorinta din launtrul osului
priveste bobocul ce se transforma-n fruct
citeste nota gratioasa ce se cere cantata

gaseste solutia ascunsa in ghicitoare,
laptisorul de matca picurand in fagure,
gaseste coeficientul potrivit al cifrei
atinge niste drojdie ce a-nceput sa fermenteze

infasoara larva in crisalida
miroase focul gata sa arda
fredoneaza cantecul de leagan ascuns in hartii vechi
schiteaza primul vers al poemului

asteapta pana ce libelula* apare dintre trestii
increde-te in mascarici pentru a intoarce singur rotile carutei
asculta in intuneric celula divizandu-se in celule
simte-ti propriul embrion in siguranta in pantec.

 

 

*”damsel fly”(in the original text)any of a group of predatory, aerial insects that are in the order Odonata. Damselflies are found mainly near shallow, freshwater habitats and are graceful fliers with slender bodies and long, filmy, net-veined wings. Damselflies are generally smaller, more delicate, and fly weakly in comparison with dragonflies (suborder Anisoptera). Their colours can be stunningly vivid. In the Romanian translation I used the generic term “libelula”(“dragonfly) given the fact that this is a not biology text and the differences between the two species are not important for the reader of a literary text.
