Poema by Deszö Tandori
1. Road to Damascus
Now when it is just the same as ever,
It is high time, it is high time that…
2. Remembrance Noise
The lawnmower hums (over there)
My electric razor (over here)
3. Two Lines from “Tapes”
This I want to keep in memory,
Oh yes. Want to keep a memory of this.
4. Kavafis – haiku
It’s half past two!
Never has a year passed so soon.
5. So That We Never Get Out of Practice
There’s solace
Thure’s surlice
Thare’s salace
Theer’s sillice
Thoore’s soolus
Thoore’s soolus
6. The Sadness of the Verb “To Be”
I should have liked it to be so.
It wasn’t so.
I asked: be it so.
So ‘twas.
7. Les Adieux
So long I’ve missed her!
Odd but I seem to grow more and more like her ̶
(While she’s getting more like somebody else now.)
“The endless confrontations,
identifications:
turned and turned around road signboards, guideposts,
are particularly fatal for those
who always stand still and never move on.”
