Ana Blandiana Poems
I've never figured out what world I live in.
I rode on a horse as young and as happy as I.
When he galloped I could feel his heartbeat
Against my thighs
...
Those who have no wings
Bustle round the cloakroom to collect them.
Those who do have wings
Very carefully zip them up.
...
I am the first of men to grow old
Beneath these burning skies.
Alone I discover,
With no one here to help me,
...
Old angels, stinking
With a rank smell in their humid feathers,
In their thinning hair,
Their skin peeling off in patches of psoriasis,
...

The Best Poem Of Ana Blandiana
A Young Horse
I've never figured out what world I live in.
I rode on a horse as young and as happy as I.
When he galloped I could feel his heartbeat
Against my thighs
And my heart pounded, unquenchable, with
the speed.
Everything flashing by, I didn't even notice
That my saddle was resting
On the bones of a horse
That was rapidly falling to pieces on the trail
And that I was still riding
On a young horse made of air
In a century that wasn't my own anymore.
