Tomorrow it will be cut down.<br \/>The bloody knife is on the ground, covered with dust.<br \/>I feel like a woman who has never had a shadow,<br \/>either sunshine or moonlight.<\/p>\n<p>III.<br \/>Right before dawn, when dreams knock loudly at my conscience gate,<br \/>a gray orchid grows under my eyelids. <br \/>A night butterfly asleep on the white sugar bowl.<br \/>What if the moon itself was nothing but the imprint of a dry flower<br \/>on the iris of a child&#8217;s eye?<\/p>\n<p>IV.<br \/>If you dare to pass by the corner of a poet&#8217;s house in Venice,<br \/>a black gate towards the old attic will open.<br \/>There the moon turns on a gramophone record.<br \/>Always the same tune, over waters and rice fields, beyond dams and oceans,<br \/>beyond white birds migrations in any season.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>copyright<br \/>Cristina Monica Moldoveanu<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/doc\/253525559\/Poems\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/doc\/253525559\/Poems<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4805","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-contemporary-poetry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4805"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4805\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4807,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4805\/revisions\/4807"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4805"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4805"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.magdalenabiela.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
