BLACK GARDEN 2

a freehaiku
by AZsacra ZARATHUSTRA
English translation by Aidar Ismagilov



for melting snowflake —
the child’s tear —
is a perversion


oh how convulsive
is the paw when caught by you —
the trap for wolves


the bough is broken,
thrown in dirt —
all of a sudden… is rimed!


how perceivable
is snail when crawling
the edge of the blade


the hoarfrost
whitened the web —
it’s broken!


oh how eager is
the wind to lynch
the rose!


broke away from the trap:
no nirvana for the paw
that was left!


the blood on the snow…
intensifies the purity of
snowflake!


withstands to all
the raging wolf —
oh I am with you!


the leap of flower
at the bamboo well
suddenly deafened!


all have flown away…
only the battle of specks of dust
inside the flower is left


the bliss of the bloom!
the bees cannot crucify
the moth


the beautiful butterfly
instead of taking part in orgy is in
is in the ant-hill!


in the soft navel of
the bee… the tender
horns of the snail rested


can you revive
tomorrow,the dead
dragonfly?
