Against the current of blood Poem by Vera Pavlova

Against the current of blood



Against the current of blood
passion struggles to spawn;
against the current of speech
the word breaks the oar;
against the current of thought
the sails of dreams glide;
dog-paddling I swim
against the current of tears.

Translation Steven Seymour
