Yellow Blight by Cemal Süreya

zdunno03's avatarLeonard Durso

My breath is a red bird
In the auburn sky of your hair
When I embrace you
Your legs grow long beyond words

My breath becomes a red horse
I can tell from my burning cheeks
We are destitute our nights are short
Let’s make love at full tilt

translated by Talat S. Halman
