Fragment: " PANA ACUM am fost femeia in casa am spalat picioarele si am plans am crezut ca am ochii buni si pasul vioi am crezut ca poemul e suficient asa am crezut pana cand am vazut cu ochii mei numele poeziei era scris cu sange ori poate era cemeala rosie si ochiul meu nu era format sa faca diferenta UNTIL NOW I have also been a maid in my house I have washed feet and wept I have believed that my eyes are good and my step nimble I have believed that poetry is enough I believed until I saw with my own eyes the name of the poem has been written in blood or maybe in red ink And my eye has not been taught to tell the difference (Paulina Popa) GHOSTS All winter long we sowed seeds, nested. Melded to one another we battled the cold as our days shortened with the nights. With the seasons' thaw came an untangling. We awoke upon a different dawn highlighting the paucity of our need. Come summer all that remained were fingerprints on the dusty shelves & a palm print on the mirror. NALUCI Am pus seminte toata iarna, le-am facut cuib. Topiti unul in bratele celuilalt, am invins frigul cand zilele se scurtau din pricina noptilor. Cu dezghetul a venit si scaparea. Ne-am desteptat la ivirea noilor zori luminand putinatatea nevoii noastre. Vino vara, au ramas doar urmele degetelor pe rafturile prafuite& urma unei palme pe oglinda. ( James Meredith) "
