stigmas on the body of air

translated from the Russian by Ryan Hardy, Asher Maria, and Kevin M. F. Platt

stigmas on the body of air

the wind finds its voices

after retouching the speaker

look at them moving

in the twilight of indifference

 


 

стигмы на теле воздуха

 

стигмы на теле воздуха

ветер обретает голоса

отретушировав говорящего

гляди как они двигаются

в сумерках безразличия
