The sun inflicted unbearable pain on her eyes. For this reason, she
lived in this damp and gloomy house, with boarded up windows. Her companions were rats, beetles and moths, flown here in search of light, but lost in the dusty corridors.
In the nights of the dark moon, she crept out, groping the gray wooden walls filled with hundreds of rains; the shutters, as if they had been affected by smallpox from the beetles; the steps where the wind was sleeping — her faithful dog…
The door grumbled warnings about how inhospitable the world was beyond the threshold of her refuge, but she didn’t listen, she stepping uncertainly on the porch where the spinning wheel stood, twined with threads of the past.
Only on these nights could she spin the web of her painful memories.
Pulling out bare nerves, anxieties and fears.
Now she remembered all the deaths that she had nursed on her hands, she remembered how the voices silenced and the diseases bloomed… She remembered how rotten flesh melted, exposing the moon’s reliefs of bones.



Солнце причиняло нестерпимую боль ее глазам, . Потому она жила в этом сыром и мрачном доме, с заколоченными окнами. Ее единственными собеседниками были крысы, жуки да мотыльки, залетевшие сюда в поисках света, но заплутавшие в пыльных коридорах.
В ночи темной луны, она выбиралась наружу, на ощупь изучая серые
бревенчатые стены, напоенные сотнями дождей, ставни, словно
переболевшие оспой из-за жуков, ступени, на которых спал ветер - ее
верный пёс… Дверь ворчливо скрипела, бормоча вслед предупреждения о том, как неприветлив мир за порогом ее убежища, но она не слушала их, неуверенно ступая вперёд, за крыльцо, где стояла прялка, увитая нитями прошлого.
Лишь в эти ночи, она могла прясть паутину своих болезненных
воспоминаний. Вытягивая наружу оголённые нервы, тревоги и страхи.
Теперь она помнила все смерти, что вынянчила на своих руках, помнила
как гасли голоса и цвели болезни, помнила как таяла гнилая плоть,
обнажая лунные рельефы костей.

The  veil of sleep had not cleared away, but her bare feet felt wet
soil and trampled grasses… The braid like a numbed snake wrapped
around the neck, dozing until the wind ruffled it into strands.
an unknown force led her through a shady forest, sometimes diluting
the darkness with flashes of the moon, hidden behind the clouds. And
she slowly walked to the marsh, obeying the voices of the drowned,
that they were looking for a new sister… And soon they would find
her by taking in the cold water embrace.

Пелена сна ещё не спала с глаз, но босые ноги чувствовали под собой
влажную почву, примятые травы… Коса, словно оцепенелая змея,
обвившая шею, дремала, пока ветер не растрепал ее на локоны.
Неведомая сила влекла сквозь тенистый лес, изредка разбавляя тьму
всполохами луны, затаившейся за тучами. И она медленно брела к болоту,
повинуясь голосу утопленниц, что ищут себе новую сестрицу… И вскоре
обретут, приняв в холодные объятия вод.

Closing my eyes, I imagine myself there, in the blue Mirror, which
cherishes the scarlet souls and velvet darkness. There my heart breaks
with a ripe pomegranate, and its tart juice sprinkling my hands and
face, brings back memories… It has been hundreds of years since I left
the gloomy hall, leaving my weak-willed twin to guard your wounded
soul. I spend my sleepless nights and restless days beside a cold dim
mirror which no longer allows me to return to that fragile world where
I was myself. Maybe I became the involuntary guardian of faded shadows
hiding in the reflection… Or am I the shadow of the past?

Закрыв глаза, я снова представляю себя там, в синем Зазеркалье,
лелеющем багряные души и бархатную тьму. Там мое сердце раскалывается спелым гранатом, и его терпкий сок, окропив мои руки и лицо, воскрешает воспоминания.  Минули сотни лет с тех пор как я покинул сумрачный зал, оставив  моего безвольного двойника охранять твою раненую душу. Бессонные ночи и беспокойные дни я провожу подле холодного тусклого зеркала, которое  больше не позволяет мне вернуться в тот зыбкий мир, где я был собой. Так может это я стал невольным стражником выцветших теней, прячущихся в отражении? Или я и есть та самая тень былого?

Dark Time.

The birds, in timid doubt,
Have taken a vow of silence.
Their beaks are shackled with ice -
Until spring.

Like clouds over the horizon,
Black eyebrows frown.
Only my shadow in a maroon dress
Takes me into the arms.

Gloom spread out like ink,
Candles melted in delirium.
Snow white palms
With petals of wax lilies.

Winds break the door bolts -
Lackeys of winter and death.
Marble cold heart
In the branches of granite inflorescences.

The pain snakes through the body,
The roots go deeper and deeper.
My features are carved in stone
By blind blizzard.

And on the inside of the eyelids
Glitter nacre,
Frozen moonless night
And the morning not knowing the sun.

Тёмное время.

Птицы, в сомнении робком,
Дали обет тишины.
Клювы - ледяной коркой -
Скованы до весны.

Как тучи над горизонтом,
Сдвигаются черные брови.
Мне раскрывает объятия
Лишь тень моя в платье багровом.

Мрак разлился, как чернила,
Свечи в бреду оплыли.
Снежно белеют ладони,
Лепестками восковых лилий.

Засовы ломают ветры -
Лакеи зимы и смерти.
Мрамор холодного сердца
В ветках гранитных соцветий.

Боль змеится по телу,
Глубже корни вонзая.
Черты мои высекает
На камне метель слепая.

А на изнанке век,
Отблесками перламутра,
Стынет безлунная ночь
И солнца не знавшее утро. (at Lipetsk, Russia)

Lacrymatory.

Every winter I had the same dream.
Dim morning, like a ghost in a white dress, entered our little room in the attic. My gaze wandered in a scattering twilight: a heavy door, boarded up with rusty nails and rotten boards, window sills strewn with dead insects, a vague landscape outside the window, hidden behind a veil of fog and snow, cracks on plastered walls…
The abode of our dreams, where we can’t find a way out. Time, shaky and smoky, turned into the evening and with the dying gray light, life was also fading. My sister was dying from the inside - she eluded me, I couldn’t catch the fragile moth of her soul.
But at the same time, her pale body tiredly moved around the room, woke up the dust sleeping on the floor, wrapped in a spiderweb, trembling on the window frames from drafts. She looked like an empty perfume bottle - dim glass without contents, but I still felt the phantom scent of withered flowers. It seemed to me that her soul spilling on the wooden floor with salty streams. I caught her tears, hoping one day to find a way to return them to her, to refill the faded eyes with life-giving moisture.

But tiredness deprived me of strength … In humble despair, I could only observe how crystal beads break on the floor. At first they fell silently, but then I heard more and more clearly how the fragments fall into the thickening darkness … And I felt like  they pierced under my skin. I shuddered in pain and … woke up.
Being afraid to touch my face wet with tears, I frantically groped for one of the bottles that I kept under my pillow, hid salty drops in it, because it thought to me that these tears were hers. And only this elixir can bring the sister back to life.

Ловец слёз.  Каждую зиму мне снился один и тот же сон. Тусклое утро, словно призрак в белом платье, Ловец слёз.  Каждую зиму мне снился один и тот же сон.

Тусклое утро, словно призрак в белом платье,

Ловец слёз. 

Каждую зиму мне снился один и тот же сон.
Тусклое утро, словно призрак в белом платье, входило в нашу маленькую комнатку на чердаке. Взгляд мой блуждал в рассеивающемся полумраке: тяжелая дверь, заколоченная ржавыми гвоздями и гнилыми досками, подоконники, усеянные мертвыми насекомыми, смутный пейзаж за стеклом, затаившийся за пеленой тумана и снега, трещины на оштукатуренных стенах… Обитель наших снов, откуда нам не найти выхода.
Время, зыбкое и дымчатое, превращало утро в вечер и, вместе с иссякающим серым светом, угасала и жизнь. Моя сестра умирала изнутри - ее взгляд ускользал от меня, я не могла поймать хрупкого мотылька её души. Но вместе с тем, её бледное тело устало перемещалось по комнате, будило пыль, спящую на полу, куталось в паутину, дрожащую на оконных рамах от сквозняков. Она стала похожа на опустевший флакон духов - тусклое стекло без содержимого, но я всё еще могла слышать призрачный аромат увядших цветов. Мне казалось, что душа ее вытекала по капле, солеными ручьями проливаясь на дощатый пол. Я ловила ее слезинки, надеясь однажды найти способ вернуть их ей, снова наполнить поблекшие глаза живительной влагой.
Но усталость лишала меня сил… В покорном отчаянии я могла лишь наблюдать как хрустальные бусины разбиваются об пол. Сначала они падали беззвучно, но затем я всё отчетливее слышала как разлетаются осколки в сгущающейся темноте… И мне казалось, что они вонзаются мне под кожу. Я вздрагивала от боли и… просыпалась.
Боясь коснуться своего лица, мокрого от слёз, я судорожно нащупывала один из флаконов, что хранила под подушкой, прятала в нем соленые капельки, ведь мне казалось, что эти слёзы - её. И только этот эликсир может вернуть сестру к жизни.

The sky wounded by birds was stained with blood.
The raging winds blinded me, weaving a wreath of hair strands.
The screams multiplied and it seemed there were no other sounds in the world,
only this all-consuming song of despair.

Небо израненное птицами обагрилось кровью.
Бушующие ветры ослепляли меня, сплетая венок из прядей волос.
Крики множились и казалось, в мире не осталось иных звуков,
только эта всепоглощающая песня отчаяния.

Keen sence of autumn. (Part 1)

  Bad Blood is looking for the way out to soak the black earth. Leaves, scarlet as fresh wounds, as if skin were torn off them, feel most acutely for autumn. And it seems that my heart is no longer beating in my chest, but it is fading.
I fall on the asphalt, as if the wind picked me up and left me to die on the side of the road, like other children of autumn. The crows and rooks took pity on me - they pecked out my eyes… And I no longer see how painfully dying October..
I just have to listen to the alarming birds voices and winds lullabies.
Cold binds the body and mind. And the rain will not quench our thirst of death.
In the mass grave, like the nameless soldiers of autumn, we find peace while our red wounds fade and our flesh blackens with ulcers…



Дурная кровь ищет пути наружу, чтобы напоить черную землю. Листья, алые как свежие раны,  словно с них содрали кожу,  острее чувствуют
осень. И мне кажется, будто моё сердце уже не бьётся в груди, но увядает.
Я падаю на асфальт, словно меня, как и других детей осени, подхватил ветер и бросил умирать на обочине дороги.
Вороны и грачи сжалились надо мной -  выклевали мои глаза… И я больше не вижу как мучительно умирает октябрь.
Мне осталось только слушать тревожные голоса птиц и колыбельные ветров. Холод сковывает движения и мысли. И дожди уже не утолят в нас жажду смерти.В братской могиле, как безымянные  солдаты осени, мы обретаем покой, пока выцветают наши красные раны, пока чернеет язвами наша плоть…
