May your Eternity be blessed, MARIANA MARIN!
10.02.1956

10 FEBRUARIE, SAMBATA SEARA, ACUM / the 10th of FEBRUARY, SATURDAY EVENING, NOW


Ea astepta sosirea musafirilor in marea sufragerie.
Nici unul dintre gesturile ei ascutite nu avea
capul insangerat.
Nici o portocala nu fusese taiata atat de frumos.
Nimic din ce ar putea face un salt mortal in fictiune.

(s-a mai spus:
o femeie, o oglinda, trei papagali nemuritori
o arma de foc, un testament rautacios, ceasuri pictate
cu fructe
o rochie de bal, un soldat de plumb, o piele de capra
un zepelin rosu, un fluier de balci, un caftan
neverosimil)


Descrierea este aproape exacta.
Lipsesc eu, memorie a celor 5 4 3 2 1 etaje
numarate incet de ochiul egiptean,
proaspat vopsit.


MARIANA MARIN

………………………….


the 10th of FEBRUARY, SATURDAY EVENING, NOW


She was waiting for her guests to arrive in the large living room.
None of her sharp gestures had
their head bloodied.
No orange had ever been cut so beautifully.
Nothing that could make a deadly leap into fiction.

(it’s been said before:
a woman, a mirror, three immortal parrots
a firearm, a wicked will, fruit-painted clocks.

a ball gown, a lead soldier, a goatskin
a red zeppelin, a fair whistle, an implausible
caftan)


The description is almost exact.
I am missing, memory of the 5 4 3 2 1 floors
counted slowly by the Egyptian eye,
freshly painted.
