BLACK GARDEN 4 a haiku by AZsacra ZARATHUSTRA English translation by Aidar Ismagilov you, praying mantis don't kill this butterfly - the dew will do it. the saw keeps gnawing - so silent remain the trees... the temptation of aroma! even ordinary flowers are craving to kill. the berries that are ripe desire to be poisoned with - curare. the state of order of the rain! in every drop is - chaos. no one is searching now for - the perfect hurricane. light dragonflies in their dreams see fears - awake them, Terror! isn't logical the sequence: the suicide of flowers follows the death of cicadas? the blow of wind!.. The one dandelion captures the field. the impossible can happen for the ashes of the butterfly - the kill of flare! the snowflake. one more snowflake. one more... snow doesn't melt... the willingness of death - in glow of Spring! the boughs salute the death. By throwing up the leaves turned yellow! to torture petals there is the tender touch of soft caterpillars... in the orchid will not awake the bumblebee: the sap's so sweet! the dust is blown to see the dead butterfly contemplating through the glass.
