  1.     

What Possibilities!

Duino Elegies of Rilke
Are whose elegies?
Occasioned by whose death?
And, who is composing them?

The German poet who had worked
With the French sculptor, Creator
Ofthe Thinkers or the Kiss – Auguste Rodin
Wrote these ten elegies over ten years.

He could imagine himself in place of the dead
And formulate the hopes and fears of theirs
And spelt them out in these elegies
And a few other poems and sonnets.

As the Russian Marina Tsvetayeva wrote to him in 1926
“You are poetry itself”: I still remember how in 2008
I had taken his poems translated by Stephen Mitchell
To Ekanth, the hotel on top of Lavasa during the monsoon.

And got the shock of Rilke’s acquaintance
With that brilliant introduction by Robert Hess:
Rilke feels Eurydice had more things to do by being
In the Underworld than joining Orpheus above!

  2.     

Haiku - 0695 - Rest In Peace

Communism, dead,
but still unburied, awaits
its elegy red

(10 January 1993)

  3.     

Elegy

You are my living
elegy

Breathing beating beasting feasting
incantation bleeding

sound boiling to
heat becoming

LIGHT

you are my living beauty

you
yes, you

burst begetting brilliance
scintillant substance of quintessence

fetting my
realized actualized
unconscious

eidolON

Angel of the lord washing the dirt
from sun-burnt
FACE

We
we Are
living this
being this
beauteous elegy

fruitious monument of merriment
magnificent Magical melody

  4.     

elegy of ages

poets of centuries,
their words ever so
-eloquent
whisper their lives
which
Result in catastrophe
but preserve them forever
-in elegy
 
Sakura Tomoko
