Description

This volume of poetry reflects the periods of profound anxiety, uncertainty and fear during a time when the author was confronted with very challenging obstacles. The spontaneous reminiscence brings up different meanings and aspects of our lives. The work is a meditation about our existences and their senses and about our roles and our relations with the people that we love. It is also about the revelations of maturity that give our mentors and societies' heroes different meanings. Some of the heroes' images will melt down showing them as "Wax Heroes". Many malefic forces in the society are proved to have behind them human characters.

În Umbre
E lumea care s-a schimbat ?
Sau eu încet m schimb
Curgând în ceasuri reci
De adânc
Ca o clepsidr cu nisip vâscos
Tot f r lacrimi plâng
E lumea care s-a schimbat ?
Gr bit

Supra digital
În magma entropiei
Alunecând

O form colectiv
De iluzii
Iar geniile
Imaginare noduri
Dintr-o re ea albastr sideral
Nu ne schimb m
Suntem pe veci acea i
În pecete
de timp pe care-l invent m
În izolare sânt statornic
Inventez trecutul
Acum iubesc tot ce-am tr dat
i mai pu in
Tot mai pu in
Visez i-mi ascult trupul
Am fost poate cândva
În alt via
Un actor umil
Sau un c lug r misionar
Disecând sensuri
Pierdut
În a Golgotei umbre
în îndoieli majore
În taine dulci
Care se ascund
În trupuri
Curgând încet
Spre nic ieri
Slujind idei i vise
Trei continente
Limbi i m ri
Prin care valuri trec

În reci tipare
Trec în cuvânt i se prefac în sare
Trec în cuvânt i apoi se-ntorc

In The Shadows
Has the world changed?
Or it is I who’s slowly changing?
Sliding into cold hours in the depths
Like mud into a sand glass clock
Crying without tears
Has the world changed?
Flooded by information
Always in a hurry
Tipping toward entropy’s magma
Where from
The new ideas are evolving
Proved to be often collective illusions
The geniuses becoming knots into a blue,
celestial network
We do not change
In many ways
We are the same forever inside the seal of reinvented time
I am the same inside myself
Reinventing my past
I now love things I did betray
And less and less I listen to my drives
I was perhaps into another life a humble actor
Or a missionary monk dissecting meanings
Lost in Golgotha’s shadows, tortured by doubt
And by sweet secrets, hiding forbidden pleasures
Slowly going nowhere
Enslaved by drives and old believes
Three continents, multiple languages
Agitated seas
Their waves dying on cold shores
Telling their sobbing story
That returns to sea

Am s r mân
Am s r mân aici cu toate îndoielile mele
Cu zilele în care am visat s însemn r s ritul
Cu aura cenu ie a mediocrit ii
Cu o identitate dedublat pân la adev r
Cu c r ile mele
Cu toamnele ca ni te elegii de frunze ruginii reverberând prin
Îndoieli , prin incertitudini , prin crepusculare remu c ri
Am s r mân aici cu ploile preriei , cu trenurile care îi t iau trupul
Am s r mân departe de tine tat
De tine mam
De loialit i care s-au dovedit naive
Palpit idealurile trecutului
Ca ni te inimi str punse
Sângerând în infinitatea clipelor
Pierdute identit i
Gândi i-v înc odat la cei iubi i
i apoi gândi i-v c
Nu a- i existat
Niciodat
4.
I Shall Remain
I shall remain with all my doubts
With the days when I dream to rise
from the mediocrity ashes
And with a split identity searching for truth
I shall remain with my books
And my autumnal elegies for the rusty leaves
Reverberating through uncertainties and sunsets
Confusions and guilt feelings
I shall remain here with the rains of the prairie
With the night trains cutting the prairie’s body
I shall remain away from you dad
From you mom
Away from many loyalties that proved in the end naive
The past ideals still pulsing
Pierced hearts
Bleeding into infinity of the nothingness
Lost identities
Think again about those you have loved
And then think that you have never existed

Biography
A simple John Doe
Being convinced that he does belong
Trapped into the temporary illusion of eternity
Counting the birds,
the heart beats,
the fallen apples
Anathema of eternal gravity
Thrown like a feather
Like a star or a stone
Into the Universe
