THE LOTUSES OF EVIL, AZsacra ZARATHUSTRA [i can read book club .txt] 📗

RAVEN IN RED SNOW

hey, sparrow
on one leg,
soon will come the snow

all of us are –
in our fields –
one-day-cicadas

in vain writhes
in the web the moth –
the spider has died

clear definiteness of the midge:
behind is – the lizard,
ahead is – the flame

long ago abandoned
nest does not remember
the wild geese

never moved
the flower under hanging still in air
dragonfly

whim of the wind –
the withered leaf had come back to
the burnt tree

the warmth of baby rats
can you preserve inside yourself,
killed rat?

having broken down loose –
the tear will not revenge
on her eyelashes

no longer pecks
red snow –
fell the raven

had set the bird free
came back and burst out sobbing
near empty cage

don’t fear webs –
you’ll have your death amongst
the blades of grass


BLACK SAKURA BLOSSOM: BLACK GARDEN 1

1
from hard snowfall
fell down the bough –
the butterfly awoke!

2
the cicada
in the grass that burns
the rain won't find

3
revenge the Beauty
for every Hurricane
killed with Roses

4
only in death of
the beautiful doe –
the wolf is Splendor

5
four cuts!
the worm is longing to
four ways

6
the panther
leaps at... the rustle
of dead bees

7
no one can
subdue: the leap
in Abyss!

8
onslaught
of caressing bumblebees
the rose broke

9
petals are vanished –
the rain brims over!
vanished the flower

10
stab!
cut! hack up!
the flight of butterfly

11
only instant of a killing –
for praying she-mantis
is Revolution

12
killed and piled in stack.
by lonely eagle-owl.
lonely mice

13
vanishes in a sunbeam
to show up again
the grasshopper

14
no one took notice:
the bee fell down in
the spring stream

15
in running tear
the eyelash finds it’s
Death


BLACK SAKURA BLOSSOM: BLACK GARDEN 2

1
O how convulsive
is the paw when caught by you –
the trap for wolves

2
the hoarfrost
whitened the web –
it's broken!

3
in the soft navel of
the bee... the tender
horns of snail are rested

4
how perceivable
is snail when crawling
the edge of the blade

5
the impossible can happen
for the ashes of the butterfly –
the kill of flare!

6
the bough is broken,
thrown in dirt –
all of a sudden... is rimed!

7
the bliss of the bloom!
the bees cannot crucify
the moth

8
the leap of flower
at the bamboo well
suddenly deafened!

9
the blood on the snow...
intensifies the purity of
snowflake

10
stands up against all
the rabid wolf –
O I’m with you!

11
the beautiful butterfly
instead of taking part in orgy is in
the ant-hill!

12
broke away from the trap:
no Nirvana for the paw
that was left

13
all have flown away...
only the battle of specks of dust
inside the flower is left

14
for melting snowflake
the child's tear –
is a perversion

15
can you revive
tomorrow,
dead dragonfly?


BLACK SAKURA BLOSSOM: BLACK GARDEN 3

1
when flower's turned:
the petals... flutter,
the butterflies bloom

2
falling leaves
pass ahead of the still
snow

3
the wild geese
went astray –
the sky is endless

4
rime
inside
the honeycombs

5
the snail has entered
its labyrinth:
the Minotaur!

6
the unity
of smallest drops is...
the tsunami blow!

7
O how strongly
the wolf can love...
the torn roes!

8
the hole
in the leaf made by the worm is...
the Abyss!

9
to burn the temple
by the Shine of
the Sunny Bee!

10
the snow is soaked
with the blood...
the she-wolf runs

11
locust come!
the fields are fatigued
with the flower beauty

12
the hail has killed
all worms on you, meaningless
lotus

13
the snake bit...
and again it nestles up to ground
like in a grief

14
no one can see:
the purity is covered by
the speck of dust

15
without pity dies
the tenderness of –
the broken boughs


BLACK SAKURA BLOSSOM: BLACK GARDEN 4

1
O praying mantis,
don't kill this butterfly –
the dew will do it

2
mania of aroma!
even ordinary flowers
are craving to kill

3
the saw keeps gnawing –
so silent remain
the trees

4
torments of
rushing about of
the midge

5
the state of order of the rain!
in every drop is –
Chaos

6
no one is
searching now for –
the Perfect Hurricane

7
light dragonflies
in their dreams see fears –
O wake them up, Horror!

8
just
to sting and
die!

9
isn't logical the sequence:
the suicide of flowers follows
the death of cicadas?

10
in the orchid will not awake
the bumblebee: the sap's
so sweet

11
snow doesn't melt...
the willingness to die –
in Bloom of Spring

12
O how eager is
the wind to lynch
the rose!

13
to torture petals there is –
a tender touch of
soft caterpillars

14
pollen is
eviscerated by
the rustle

15
the dust is blown:
the dead butterfly looks
through the glass


NOTHING OF MATSUO BASHO: NIHILBASHO 1

1
the dream of butterfly
that butterfly is dead
is Reality

2
the rat is soaked
with the gas and burnt –
the running fire

3
the bell
has tinkled on dead
hawk

4
the water in the stem
of orchid will flood
the waterfall of dew

5
humble, wasp!
you are refracted as
a bee in dew

6
flutters the worm...
but seen is
butterfly

7
fleece of a bumble-bee
under scales of
lizard

8
the wind through
the roses... quailed the eagle:
the execution by the petals!

9
becoming lucid
with hooting of
the eagle-owl

10
the warm inside
the thinnest
stem

11
in owl's feathers
hides the ant –
it snows!

12
petals are bared like teeth –
bristled up with thorns
the she-wolf of roses

13
the vortex
of smallest
stings

14
the leap of flower –
the bee has blossomed out
all of a sudden!

15
the trap
of body's shut –
the bullet's caught!

16
in the bottom of the tear
the scale from wings
of moth

17
there is no old pond.
there is no frog that jumped
in water

18
the lonely blind buzzard
is left on winter ground:
the wind is fierce

19
the torn wing
of butterfly has...
never landed

20
went to pieces
the mummified
grasshopper

21
no one feels sorry for –
the spider that bit
the child


NOTHING OF MATSUO BASHO: NIHILBASHO 2

1
the beauty
of machaon – isn't it the end
of web?

2
web
after web: no one
can fly through

3
squashed is
the snail: and all of a sudden –
the same shape

4
even supple
boughs are broken...
tenacious snow!

5
without tremble falls
the barely blossomed
bud

6
the copulation
of butterflies on thorns
of cactus

7
the nectar of the mournful
flowers was sucked
by the proboscis of the bee

8
geometry
of Death: the triangle
of mantis' head

9
the trap
of wings
of butterfly

10
the web is torn away:
clings to the void –
the spider hangs

11
amongst the fragrant
caterpillars... the bee
without odor

12
the fluffs
of dandelion will die
in cells of honeycomb

13
revenge is –
mother of the honey
bees!

14
the hit
with brass-knuckles!.. instead
of meditations

15
in bud
there is no dew –
the perfect silence

16
to swollen vein
has stuck the snail –
no way it's torn away

17
the precipice
is hid in...
the Abyss

18
all petals
are torn away! no sense
in life of wind

19
inside
to sink the bud
in dew!

20
the fall of bumble-bee
in Abyss
of the drop

21
the pointed shot –
but whirls over and over
alive butterfly


NOTHING OF MATSUO BASHO: NIHILBASHO 3

1
the trace of bird
in air – is seen before
the bird shows up

2
the ice
inside the flower:
the snow of sap!

3
the leaves inherit
the rustle
of the snake

4
torn wings
resurrect
the butterfly

5
the buzzing
of the bee has stunned
the stalk

6
the music of the flower
never starts until
it Vanishes

7
never betrays
only What
Kills

8
O only Death
is more important than
the blossoming of flower!

9
the berries that are ripe
desire to be poisoned with –
curare

10
with thorns
has blossomed out
the rose

11
O feel orgasm,
the ant
princess!

12
the flight of butterfly
is in solidity
of stone

13
the rest of
the speck of dust on the scale
of moth

14
the Death
from immortality
of females

15
the chain of Infinity
is in suicide of
links

16
to walk into the stream
of resurrected
rats

17
the inside
of the flower has –
the tracery of snake

18
the fire
tempts in vain:
the butterfly is timid

19
to reign as a bee
in madness
of nectar!

20
all of a sudden
got detached the tail
of lizard

21
everything will be the hive
for dead
bees!


NOTHING OF MATSUO BASHO: NIHILBASHO 4

1
remember
about Heart
of the speck!

2
severance
of the petals makes
the Whole Rose

3
the leap
of squashed worms
in lightning

4
the labyrinth
dies away inside
the snail

5
the wounded butterfly
crept into
the flower

6
the spider with its web
has concealed
the fire
