after elizabeth bishop (and for a friend)after elizabeth bishop (and for a friend)1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
last night i dreamed that
you loved me.
you took the moon
from its place in the the sky
and laid it in the white palms of
my open hands,
which set the white orb free,
the gentle toss becoming
the flight of wing on salty breeze.
its reflection passed over
dark water,
deep and limitless,
but spangled with phosphorescence
mimicking the aching starlight above,
and then the bird was gone...
my hands left open
holding
a silver basin of borrowed light,
shining from the night
of another poem.

the sluggish ascent of torment can not be climbed down anymore. yet, i should have looked at the sky forever.

ahreli bir kağıt üstüne simsiyah kapanmışım
kazırım kendimi bir secdeden, ellerimde gizli hattatlar
ve söze gelmez devrik duyarlıklarım
gözlerim -hüznün dilsiz masalcısı-
gözlerimde hiçbir dile çevrilmez intiharlar
oysa saklı hançerimi mağrur bildiniz
kendimin tenha bir yerinde vurulmuşum, yatarım
orası bir denizin gölgesidir, göremezsiniz
(bir peygamberin yanlış ayakları
intihar halinde sevişmektedir)
ölüm üzre bir akrepken menekşelenirsiniz

Yaşadığından uzun;
Bir tatlı yolculuk dalından inmek yere.

Dalın yüksekliğince rüzgarda;
Ve bir yeni ö'mü'r
Vardığın çimen yeşilliğince.

Dalın üstüme dalın
Vurun beni, urun

Ah sizden ben nasıl da yok yere korkmuşum!
Bilmiyordum ki çünkü
Ben hem balığım hem kuşum
Ben ama hala anlayamıyorum ki
Bunca zaman niye sizden ayrı oturmuşum

derdim günüm insan içine çıkarmaktı seni

Nein, es war kein Wasser. Dafür war es zu dunkel und auch viel zu schwer zu durchdringen. Diese Leichtigkeit musste ich mir erst wieder erarbeiten.
Doch fühlte ich mich hier auf eine merkwürdige Weise wohl. Es war schön… Verwirrend und eigentlich bedrohlich, aber doch so unglaublich schön. Und friedvoll. Dennoch konnte ich nichts dagegen tun, dass mein Bewusstsein immer weiter aufstieg. Es erkämpfte sich

I remember when the winter

But it hangs around my house now,

No Other Nancy told Tommy the Tree,

Old man, I've known you forty years,

I never bought, I will not now.

a sedative, then slides back in. Eve's deep
breathing tells him that she did not wake.
He lies there thinking back upon the year
he lay awake and listened, wrapped in fear,
to make sure she was breathing, and how sleep
would tug him down; recalls how glad he was
to hear her snore. She is snoring gently now.
He thinks of wakeful nights he slept alone,
and then of all the lovers who have known
these breaths and silences; he'll write a poem.
He starts it in his head to pass the time.
He makes a line or two he wants to keep,
repeats them to himself as he falls asleep.

Oh, my baby is rambling,
and I can't track her down.
It's three weeks tomorrow

And I know she's a good girl

I ate all the oysters

You know we all do things

But I need a companion
