Every day
is a memorial day
Turn on
the light
it's enough
to turn on
the light
it's enough
When you come back from work
The darkness, before it disappears, is a little worried
--Lesyk Panasiuk, tr. from Ukrainian
“A hundred nights
await you, and a hundred nights have died.
You hover in between”
Vasyl Stus from “A Stranger Lives My Life and Wears My Body”
Translated from the Ukrainian by Alan Zhukovski

The migrant feminist studies other people’s histories of themselves, because what one cannot have, one cherishes.
The migrant feminist makes no claims on land. The migrant feminist makes love to hyperbole.
from ‘Manifest’ by @freedewi
but a poem can love
like hold you and scold you at the same time
a poem can rip away the untruths that have cocooned us
a poem can make you butterfly
not fly
you already fly
from ‘what can a poem do?’ by @DariusVDaughtry
“did anyone die or is everyone alive and kicking
only frightened that there is no more peaceful life perhaps
war happens and the laws of war are a cruel thing”
Boris Khersonsky
tr. Olga Livshin & Andrew Janco
from “Words for War: New Poems from Ukraine”

I am not silent, I can’t keep quiet
Like the dead beneath the dirt
In the midst of this sweet world.
from ‘Contentment’ by Rüştü Onur, tr. by Hüseyin Alhas & Ulaş Özgün
For every birthday, a new notebook
would appear wrapped tightly with a bow.
I would bury my nose inside it
as if the pages would write themselves
with my breath. The pages I'd fill with words
my young tongue was too knotted to express.
from ‘Mother of Letters’ by @tiananob
I am an instrument in the shape
of a woman trying to translate pulsations
into images for the relief of the body
and the reconstruction of the mind.
from ‘Planetarium’ by Adrienne Rich
