The City of Salty Water<\/i><\/p>\n
by Vahid Ziaei <\/b>
\nTranslated from Persian by Parvin Toluei<\/p>\n
\u2026 This one at noon
\nAnd the lake,
\nFour steps and harmonized; <\/p>\n
\nThe silent confession’s adverted to your fingers,
\nWhile I lost the chess over the shrine
\nThe little girl decayed
\nInside the brick.<\/p>\n
The sun, in the midst of the hall,
\nWants ecstasy of the hanging sofa \u2026
\nInside my fingers, stained
\nFour kisses, and harmonized
\nAnd the lake,
\n\u2026This one at noon<\/p>\n
The Palpitation<\/i><\/p>\n
I’ll not become a poet
\nSo much
\nThat instead of the heart
\nBeats in my body
\nThe word!<\/p>\n
\nTranslated by: Parvin Toluei
\nFrom ”33 Erotic Poems” by Vahid Ziaei<\/p>\n
