SIBERIA, GIGANTIC LACHRYMATORY

 Siberia, gigantic lachrymatory 
gigantic ossuary
of a starved age
dreams of stretching out
all the way to the beginning
of some enchanting years
upon the soil of Europe
over our sarcophagi
so that she find a drop 
of diaphanous time
a presence without reverse,
so that she put an end
to the dialogue of one —,
her lips shrivelled from frost
and thirst upon a red spot.

THE CHEAP GIGS OF THE ROMANIAN WRITERS

 The cheap gigs of the Romanian writers
– they write exclusively trashy shows –
stink strongly of shit.
From so much pestilence
the perfidious readers flee
and hide underground.

COME TO US, JESUS CHRIST

 Come to us, Jesus Christ,
we who are faltering with wickedness
and hatred, break our bones so we may see
with our own eyes how we can weep,
perhaps we will be transfigured
in a dream, in angular years like approaching
rocks. Come, heal our bread,
our greed. Are we destined to be
only beginnings of chimpanzees?

THE SYSTEM

 In Moldovlahia the system (Providence)
has completed the process of zombification
each individual carries the providential plague
yet always enveloped in his own shroud
he carries back all the accumulated evil
like in the binary system 0 1 negative positive,
the officials protected as if in a bowl of unbreakable
glass study the roads to the grave,
armed with a GPS. If these people disappear
from history it is nothing. The system 
is one and the same with a slaughterhouse. 
Providence suggests that this is man's fatum.

REFLECTION (Cioran's solution...)

 At Emil Cioran's solution to the existence — that it would be advisable to resolve it through suicide, and the sooner the better — the Romanians wrinkled up their noses saying, "If they want this, let the gypsies and other foreigners do it. We don't commit suicide for the sake of an opinion.” 

REFLECTION (Nietzsche's idea...)

 Friedrich Nietzsche’s idea of will and power, issued by a weak-minded cripple, holds true only until the possessor of that will catches a cold or some more serious illness. What the hell are you supposed to do with your will then?
