as if to walk
confidently
with great armies
yet hesitation
was witnessed
in their waving gestures
perplexed
and touching
green crowns,
there they...

Yet at this very moment the cathedral was crumbling
down upon the cries of foresaken refugees,
the monastery's walls wobbling from war's wreckage,
and as the black bursts billowed into sun drenched brutality
with the bodies of...

Let It Be That By Vera Polozkova Translation

And all of it that was before is now neglected.

And I'll stop knowing what you whisper all

A Recipe For Peace
Peace is though difficult
Yet not impossible to uphold,
All the kings of the states
Must remain self-concerned,
Without poking noses
Into the affairs of others,

To expand the territories,
Subjugate the nations of the world,
Enforce the...

The Fall of the Black Angels
This last few years
Had seen fighting so coarse
Having vowed never to fight
Viewing histories remorse
The black angels of angst
Went back on their word
The earth for themselves
It's what they preferred
No explanation
No discussions met
Their war on...

Dragon Days
The stables stretch gloomily yawningly empty
Carefully cleaned and tended each single day,
As they have timelessly been, keeping pledge
Ever since the Royal Dragons had flown away
Through that gaping rift suddenly riven in the sky.
Black at its...

Bozhidar Pangelov&Vania Konstantinova/In Memoriam/
Under the Coat of Arms
In Malta, in the ancient walls
is beating the sea so salty.
Somewhere behind,

are shining through southern almonds.
There is no moon.
The light is illuming
herself
in the pearl of your...

The Meadow

Neath umbilical sky
On nutrient Earth
She stands alone this noon
Surrounding woods

Distant structures
Seem to encase the lush green plot
Have taken on a sunny sheen
Then there is this peaceful babbling brook

Ride In the Blue Ridge
It seems as if some bold designing hand
With black and silver ribbon tied the hills--
Tied by squeezing in the pliant land,
And left a concrete bow beside the mills.
I skimmed old roads both straight and serpentine.

Facing Out
The shoulders chaffed, the weary backs
of pack mules cursed with intellect,
so briefly were unburdened from
the detrious of war.
A break for a line doggy
from the green corrupted alley,
the worst stretch of the worst path;
hell's putrid inner...

Rooks At Dusk
In brooding dusk they gather from the East
Arrive in twos and threes upon the trees.
Autumn beeches, now devoid of leaves,
Begin to darken as the branches heave
And teem with animated rooks.
And jackdaws too, all jockeying for...
