Cum Curge Ploaia / How The Rain Flows Poem by Magdalena Biela

Cum Curge Ploaia / How The Rain Flows

Rating: 5.0

ascult darabana ploii pe blocuri, franchețea ei pură. franchețea ei absurdă într-o țară unde până și moartea e un politician: nu-i pasă de aparențe, nici de ce se ascunde sub ele, un singur țel pompându-i sângele-n inimă - să învingă.

cum curge ploaia într-o țară de politicieni, un teatru în care personajelor de prim-plan le-au luat locul maimuțele cu funduri roșii… că-i iarnă, că-i vară, fug maimuțele de lumină: jos, în cuibul șobolanilor. sus, în podul cu molii drogate cu aburi de făină. dar teamă n-au: steaguri ale dezastrului, pe acoperișuri flutură pieile nobile puse pe bețe.

MARIANA CODRUT

how the rain flows

I listen to the drumming of rain on the blocks, its pure frankness. its absurd frankness in a country where even death is a politician: it doesn't care about appearances, nor what hides beneath them, one goal pumping its blood to the heart - to win.

how the rain flows in a country of politicians, a theater in which the leading characters were replaced by monkeys with red bottoms… be it winter, be it summer, the monkeys run away from the light: down under, in the rat's nest. up, in the attic with flour steam drugged moths. but they have no fear: flags of disaster, noble skins on sticks flutter on the roofs.
