A wordcinema
by AZsacra ZARATHUSTRA
English translation by AIDar ISMAGILOV

take away from them
your own
death

nothing of
unborn
child

the sound of
wiping
the mirror

day of
crystal
knives

to shutter paradise
with speck of
Dao

to shutter hell
with little hair of
De

to flow as
a drop from
the leaf

to kill with
"splash
in silence"

the strategy
of snowflake
battles

ritual of
getting sink wolf's
teeth into

the dew
rushes about
in rage

who can
thrust with
the petal?

to kill, to be
in Nothing
aren't!

the thrill of butterfly
is more pure than
the courage of tiger

the rat opens
its third
eye

interlacing of the tails
of scattered
lizards

grains of sand
are overfilled with
precipice

reflection of the tiger
breaks outside of
mirror

the Great War of
germinating
grains

the hurricane
has sheltered
the ear

triumph of
defeated
tears
