Maryam:
I follow the rainbow beams of sun 
through the crystals of my Moroccan curtain.
I rise like the last woman on the earth. 
David:
The Robin on the sill 
has a message from Amherst, from Emily.
The window is lonely
You should open your society.
Maryam:
I unwrap the present.
 “Sobh bekheir, Aziz.”
David:
 “Good morning, dear.”

Speed Forth the Darkness

Stephen Frech --

There is time enough—
in the ruins, the arch still holds.
A tree has taken root
among the stones.
The oracle bones
in fragments
now predict
the still uncertain future.
We are fishermen
drawing in our nets
from calm waters,
oracles of what is.

David Dephy --

Why hurry, darkness?
We have nets to mend,
catch to sort,
and a line from a poem I love
is playing over and over again in my head.

#22

LUCAS HIRSCH-

Can you starve in a city of millions
without anybody noticing?
Today I met somebody
who was licking his finger
I can’t remember him
I sing a song of la-da-dee-la-dee-da
And what about the birds, poet?
They never had anything to do with poetry
They only fly to be on the move
The rest is fabricated by poets

DAVID DEPHY-

This way I don’t mistake the chemical nature of love

LUCAS HIRSCH-

The sea is no more than a wet manipulator
To and fro, here nor there, ebb and flow

DAVID DEPHY-

How did it get this dark?

LUCAS HIRSCH-

I unscrewed the light from its socket and hid it
in the kitchen drawer under the sink
See, no poetry at all
The hunger stays

Poetry Orchestra - #22

DON’T LISTEN TO THAT NOISE

~ for my mother


Look at me, don’t listen to that noise 
beyond the wall, look at me, say a word, 
any word, I still hear your voice 

from that divine side of alone— 
where we all will be born again, 
don’t be nicely listless, don’t be 

silent, don’t be afraid, don’t follow 
that noise right before dawn, all the lilac 
shadows dwell in the end of the road, 

changing that end into the fleeting glimpse 
of transforming blaze right from your heart, 
from the other side of light, don’t listen 

to that noise, and before you’ll reunite 
hold on for a second, shadows are their own 
masters, on the soundless side of alone, 

but seconds are now gone, and light all 
around vanishes in a void, remembering 
my smile in your distant heavenly eyes.

Breeze of Bay Shore

Long ago, the wind knew my plans. I asked myself: 
“If the wind knows our plans who can defeat the wind?” 
Long ago, I knew the answer. Silence.

I always knew that we all are going to the garden, 
and there was a street, empty, tiny, calm street, 
with the tiny wall, at its very end, and a garden 

beyond that wall. Ruins, as precious dust of hope, 
and wishes. Long ago, in noisy night I was attacked. 
I don’t remember those faces, voices, I left for dead. 

All I remember is my own breath, 
strangely telling the truth— meaning of loneliness, 
as if that garden beyond the wall 

was the sanctuary of my own heart, always alive, 
always beautiful from the very beginning of time.
I lived to revenge myself against my enemies, 

not for what they were – for what I was, 
from the end of childhood, friendship, war, 
from the beginning of understanding— 

when we all were created as a crown of the world, 
I thought the loneliness, and even that pain meant 
we were not loved, but standing on the other side 

of alone, I felt the cold breeze of bay shore, 
and took a deep breath, I heard the seagulls up above, 
“it’s all over now,” I realized, and it meant we loved.

Meanings Only

Language, the spirit of silence. 
Each word, the heart of silence.
Without hearts we are sightless,
with fingers searching for rays. 

I was circled by the cutlery of 
emptiness, but I felt your breath 
one day, I realized my existence. 
Essence emerged from emptiness.

All the mysteries of our century
and all the answers flew with us.
Silence. Language of understanding. 
Meanings, only. No words.
