MILICA JEFTIMIJEVIC

A MOMENT OF REALITY

While enveloped by the Moon and grazed by death

You dream about a far-away shore that is not

Conquered in your absence

I have too little of you,

More than he has me

He who suffers from admonishing longing,

From the jealousy that makes him a beast,

He sharpens his sense of being threatened

And feels the danger like a beast and knows:

You have become the center –

You have sheltered all of me,

You have pulled me into yourself.

You have, like Zeus on Mount Olympus,

Assumed all the power and hidden me.

In vain does he give birth to me like to Aphrodite

I am not where he left me

To be waiting for the promised waking.

And you just turned up suddenly

Like a stray bullet and drove into me,

Anchored in my Soul you radiate devastatingly,

And the removing of the bullet woukl be fatal.

The entire system of existence became distrupted,

Everything was changed hit with that shot.

My blood flow, poisoned, is clotting up

Will I am stumbbing toward myself

To come back to the same road…

And you wandering under the old  walls

To reach the new heights

Do not turn round

For the scene of unbearable emptiness

The abysses of my essence

Will appall you.

Filled with the mercy of the moment

Neither you nor I

Wonted it.

THE COSMIC INDISPENSABILITY

To a Philosopher

So important to me,

You will never understand

Something very simple,

Like the crash of thunder

Emptying the skies,

My violent run after you.

Surrounded by a host of  bodies

Full of  beauty and passion

Inviting you wherever you go,

You did not recognize the thought,

You who descend to the foundations

Did not understand her scream,

And she longed for the echo,

For your confirmation.

You wise, experienced one, full of everything

Like a too mellow fruit,

Did not recognize that it was

The hunger of the Soul for the Other,

The vacuum of a Being gaping

With the incurable emptiness.

You saw the woman and her desire,

The things seen by the ignorant as well,

And you should have

(You know very well what)

Discerned the spirit getting ahead

Squeezed by the matter –

You should have aided it to flash!

And wherever you came

Guided by your senses and mind,

Whatever depths of knowledge you reached

You missed something so obvious.

So important to me –

Were you not because of  yourself,

But because of myself.

My road kept going on.

You were the point of the ascent

From where one can see more,

And regardless of your smiles or silence,

I had to climb up

Deprived of your hands,

Supportedby my own forcse.

The thought I was making you of

Keeps extending, dragging me ahead,

That is the cosmic indispensability,

Like our encounter, determined by it.

You were so important to me –

To the person looking for salvation

Pushed from the abyss of  life

Not into your beautiful face,

To me, an exalted woman in love.

MONOLOGUE  OF INCONSOLABLY MAN

You were disasters that carries all before it.

The storm that tore all ties with the past,

Abyss from which they may not raise,

Coma from which I did not want to wake up.

You were my undulating blood that is bright

I blindly dragged me to the distances.

You were my deepest connection to myself.

I've been the one who forgot himself.

You have become my darkness

And my constant shall

I emptied my  essence

And my unquenchable thirst

And my despair

I and my enlightenment

My whole day prayer

and-night,

endless screen  in mind

as intrusive flashing

I can not close my eyes

but I do not see this

I can not find the sunset

even in the deepest sleep

wherever you look

yet everywhere you

all persons have your face,

All scenes are lost

under the influence of your character.

everywhere glowing

These indestructible images of longing,

This dangerous ditch your aura.

It was the last horizon

to climb

I stayed my my my,

My deepest suffering.
