THE WORM

a poem
by AZsacra ZARATHUSTRA
English translation by AIDar ISMAGILOV



now –
only rats
await the Coming of
Their Own
Heart


shoots of the grass
bring us the Great
Defeat


not to
the ant-hill –
but to the Sun swerve
the ants


the trees are
called upon for battle by
the rain


the worm of
black
wisdom of the Soil
flies into
the Sky


as the Divine
Butterfly


and doesn't taste
the dead
flesh
