Your Visage
he
pretends he's writing that noon's biography
while
pursuing an apparition with your visage in the rain
she
tries obstinately to dry its blue tear
knowing
that in its wake the unhealed thought
of
the sleepless night will remain
fairly
divided between one groping and another
(the
one
who
looked from a distance how others had abandoned his own foolishness
in
the water and the one with his eyes swollen from too much crying
had
doubtlessly the same visage
your
own)
however
much you'd hate yourself
you
are and will remain closer to me
than
the occasional swimmer who seized by panic
troubles
the peacefulness of these lines
which
a virus that doesn't care about the language they are written in
could
easily lure them in a trap of wet cloth impregnated
with
gypsum
just
fit for treason's grin and terror
this
last attempt
to
recognize that the whole thing is but a farce
oh
how
have they all managed to borrow your visage and likeness
as
soon as I began to examine
the
clay leaves of the tree
which
my father had had the whim of planting
right
between the eyebrows of the high voltage transformer
Ludwigsburg, July 1998
Translated
from the Rumanian of Traian Pop Traian by Heathrow O'Hare
