TWO SONNETS WITH WORD 'ETERNITY'
Sunday, 14 Jun 1998

...several days ago I received posting with R.M.Rilke's poem and a while after more and more verses. May be it is a token of transition to a general poetization of 'gaiapc' folks... ("Ich auch kreise um Gott...", Heiner).                                                                     Poetically,     Valery

 

TWO SONNETS WITH WORD 'ETERNITY'
                               by Valery Kourinsky (Moscow)

I
A cold gray day. And all my winters
are here at the window in the somber room,
in too long thought that's working like a broom
at nety while that catch'd a fishy star,

at while dots on the pavement, at the car…
It lost an age ago a long line of a boom
for this eternity of tiny doom
of rocky second born by the nightmare.

The time had failed to be itself this time,
and had produced a Black Hole of the crime,
which is to be unable to be always

and steady to believe, to hope, to trust
and bravely to destroy an absurd crust
and to not take the bodies for the souls.

II

Eternity has brown and grayish eyes
and It goes here on the Ukrainian hills
and knows all news of us and fairly deals
them among trees and dust. So far It tries

be simple as event . At night It cries
and cuddles my world and all our wills
and me as a man's body . Oh It steals
from flesh the crumbs of acute 'why's',

because a human's equal with an asker,
whose thoughts are vegetative cluster
of questions and an endless painful doubt.

But in the end It cruelly crushes us
and trifles our lives and cuts like grass
this existence that seems to us so stout.
