A Deal / Bleeding

(Nasrullah Baki)

Light doesn't cheat me more
I bear eyes within eyes,
Air falls on me, take my souls,
Dreams beneath and beyond dreams,
I lie in darkness, feel warm and call it
Mom! I feel to be seized in her womb.

The more I rustic the more I civilized.
Very man in me a cautious careless
And smartly unsmart, I'm too much
Ignorant crossing soundless sounds! I walk
Run, act through my free bondage
I'm congested with sin sustaining
Original sin.

A murderer sleeps in my sense
With no actions, the land of my dream
Is getting smaller, dissected, desiccated with
Dishonesty and with sexless sex. Wishes can't
Make me tame, and am the slave of time maintaining
Distance, my souls are sparkling
On endless space!

My mind is very social
Being wild, lunatic, rude,
Always doing such and such
Believing nothing actual.
Darkness evokes me and I like
To go very close to her.
Now the me,
Not a mere being
No more substance!
