Posted in English, Middle East, Poetry with tags GIZ, poetry on 2011-03-29 by candycactusNow I work for a largest development aid agency in the world. It has been a long time that I felt like a slave. I am not supposed to write anything about it. As soon as I am free I will write. For now – just poetry.
Fate drops from a water pipe
you realize is broken
wet socks – you did not realize
the floor was wet
it is everything but you wanted
to get. I read – you have to love
your enemies and meet
your demons with compassion,
because it’s them who bring your fate,
who will embrace you like
an old whore with a madonna smile
and vague memories of the time
when you loved her
as a girl from the street
with the grocery store.

akmeny ugnis
ugnyje vanduo
vandeny žuvis
žuvyje akis
akyje avis
avyje lietus
lietuje medus.
Verses. If I Meet You
Posted in Poetry, Travel diary with tags poetry on 2010-03-15 by candycactusI’ll bring you the scent of apples
The dim light in alleys of thoughts
The green of the dragonfly whisper
And an image of clouds in my tea
I’ll bring you the shoes of my childhood
With dust of big journeys back then
The mist of warm summer mornings
And stillness of stone within.
