Poetry: Laszlo Aranyi

Barbatos knows how animals talk (visual poem)




Weird signs (visual poem)




Lรกszlรณ Aranyi
The Last Letter of Frankenstein

It's clarified to be irrelevant:
The ebbing ocean shapes into a new continent. 
(The figure eight is the mirror of the Circle. 
       And the next is the Cauldron. 
The cooling Sun: spider-like.
Amazed by the dance of limbs broken in the wheel.) 
It goes on,
Beyond bad, beyond good,
shadows merrily playing tag

in the corridors made of bone and ice,
a fateless candle flame wobbles:
into the Unknown.

(Translated by Gabor Gyukics)

Sublimation

              He thought he heard some kind of muffled hiss. 

(Like the pop of the slipery-cool carp's swim-bladder
in our clenched grip ) 
He fell nine stories. 

And instantly it was smeared on the asphalt 
              (He didn't say as much as a "holy shit"...)
Passers-by formed an orderly circle, staring at the sight. 
       The ice-cream cone looks like the holy grail 
held by the fingers of a big-assed woman 
                     who greedily lickes with her
       the elongated  tongue heavy with the plaque of decay. 

       At such times the wrecked remains is abandoned 
beyond the limits of our perception. 
The departing cool is pale, light as breath pink that fades to white. 

                    Piss trickles down from under the skirt 
that wraps around a broken thigh bone pierced 
through the skin, 
                    Bicycle wheel and 
              shoe prints: 
                           Strange jewels on a dancing pool of blood.
