BORNA TRILOGY - 3

...AND SOLITUDE OF SILENCE DRAGGED ME TO SOLITUDE IN SILENCE AND THE TIME,WHO IS ALWAYS PRESENT.THE TIME TO BRING SPACE TO THE TIME,TO TAKE SPACE FROME THE TIME,TO OMEGA OF MELANCHOLIA,AT 'THE TIME OF BORNAI' AND THIS WAS THE TITLE OF MY FINAL BOOK IN 'BORNA TRILOGY' ALTHOUGH IMAGES IN WORDS STILL WITH ME IN A LONG SOMBER JOURNEY OF WAILS AND WAVES...

*OMEGA OF DEATH*

AND THE GREEN NIGHTS PASS
AS THE TIME OF NAKEDNESS EXTENDED
AT THE TIME OF TIME
WHEN THE TIME WAS CONSTANTLY PERSUING YOU
AND THE GREEN TIMES
PASS THROUGH GRASS.

THAT SUMMER
I WAS STARING
AT THE TIME
BUT THE TIME
WAS REACHING ME
EMPTY OF GAZE
MAY BE
EMPTY
ONLY
AT THE TIME OF DEATH DEPARTURE.

BORNA TRILOGY - 2

...SO I WAS LEFT LONELY AND RETURNED TO FIND A REFUGE IN THE HOUSE OF POETRY.
FOR THIS HAS BEEN MY HABITAT AT THE TIME OF HARDSHIP.
THEN " THE GUEST OF OUR GOOD EARTH " WAS PENNED IN SOLITUDE OF SILENCE,OF THAT BOOK THE POEM 'FOURTIETH '( CHELLEH GUI )APPEARS ON THIS PAGE.

* FORTIETH *

FATHER IS OLD SOUL AND THE YOUTHFUL IS YOU
ALL MUSCLES AND MASCULINE IS YOU
- FERDOSI

1.TONIGHT I ONLY COUNT METEORS WITH YOU
FOLLOWING THE COUNT OF
FORTY RESTLESS NIGHTS
WITHOUT AN END.

2.AND WITH YOU I GAZE AT
THE MOON AND CONSTELLATIONS
WHO ARE PLAYING ANXIOUSLY AGAIN
AND THE SUN SILENTLY
SITTING IDLE
IN FORTIETH.

3. TONIGHT I OBSERVE
QUIET BLUE STARS
IN THE RED NEBULAR OF YOUTH
TONIGHT I GO AROUND
THE WORLD IN SOLITUDE
WITH YOU I AM TAHAMTAN
I AM ROSTAM AND FARAMARZ
WITH YOU.

NO! THIS TORN CALENDAR
WON'T DARE TO PAGE
IN THE WIND.
AND WE REMAIN GUESTS OF
OUR GOOD EARTH.

ESCAPES IN ANGST
WITH BLOWN TRESSES

THE BEGINNING OF THAT AHURAI SONG
RISES TO
BECOMING AGAIN

8 1/2

IT TAKES 8 1/2 ANGELINAS
TO DISCOVER HEAVENS
WHERE THE DAREDEVIL
IS ASKING FOR HELP
TO COLOR THE SKY.
HE IS DIRECTING
CUMULUS STEAMS OF
8 1/2 TURKISH BATHS
TOWARD SPACE
TO LIGHT UP THE STAGE.
I RECOGNIZED LIFE
BY FACES OF
8 1/2 WHORES
AND 8 1/2 PIMPS
DANCING WITH
8 1/2 DEVIL HORNS X 2

AFTER WATCHING 8 1/2 ,A 1963 FILM OF FEDERICO FELLINI WITH HANDSOME DEVIL MARCHELLO MASTROIANI AND PRETTY DEVILESS CLAUDIA CARDINALE WHO NEVER GOT OLD, AT LEAST IN THIS MOVIE!
THIS POEM FOR HOSSEIN FAZELI(NAANAAM) WHO WAS BORN IN SHIRAZ,06061343.NAANAAM WITH HIS POEMS MADE WINE OF SHIRAZ TASTE ACRID AND NOSTALGIC.THAT'S WHY IT IS SO POPULAR AROUND THE WORLD.and sometimes disguised in Syrah,but we all know it is the same word,and even tastes the same too.
Also a glass of SHIRAZ WINE for Federico Fellini on his birthday,a great lover in the shape of Satan/Satana...

LANGSTON HUGHES DAY

*EPILOGUE
I, too sing America

I am the darker brother
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes
But I laugh
And eat well
And grow strong

Tomorrow
I'll sit at the table
When company comes
Nobody'll dare
Say to me
"Eat in the kitchen"
Then

Besides
They see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed-

I,tto am America

LOVE PLATONIC STYLE

IT IS ALL PLATO'S FAULT WHO WAS BORN MAY 21,428 B.C. AND LASTED TILL 347 B.C. THE BROAD SHOULDER THINKER REDUCED LOVE TO DIALOGUE ON LOVE.SO SOMEONE NAMED NIETZSCHE DIALOGUED THAT IT IS ALL FOR POWER AND THE OTHER GUY WHOSE LAST NAME WAS SCHOPENHAUER CLAIMED POWER AS SEX DRIVE IS RESPONSIBLE.
ALL THESE THINGS BROUGHT UP SUSPICION THAT MEN ARE AFTER LOVE TO MAKE SURE THEY'LL STAY ON POWER AND KEEP THEIR TIGHT GRIP ON THE OTHER SEX.WHILE OTHER THINK TANKS THOUGHT ALL THESE ARE MUTUAL,AND FROM LOVE TO SEX TO POWER IT IS ALL ON GIVE AND TAKE BASIS AND GIVE AND TAKE AGREEMENT OF NATURE'S NATURE.SO EVERYBODY CONCURRS TO TAKE SIDE AND PLAY THESE ROLES.
AFTER ALL FOUCAULT IS THE ONE WHO EMPHASISED ON ROLE OF SHOULDER IN THIS MATTER:
ONE BENDS FOR ONE TO PUT THE BURDEN ON THE SHOULDER.
THE POINT IS WHOSE SHOULDER IT IS AND WHOSE BURDEN.HERE COMES DISCUSSION AND DIALOGUE AND DIFFERENC ABOUT LOVE,RATHER THAN LOVE ITSELF.AND THAT IS ALL PLATO'S FAULT ON HIS B-D AND OR ANY OTHER DAYS OF THE YEAR.
BY THE WAY AT THAT TIME OF HISTORY WHERE THE HECK PLATO OR HIS FAMILY FOUND A CALENDAR TO REGISTER HIS BIRTHDAY ON IT AS OF MAY 21 ?!

REZA SEYED HOSSEINI HAD EYES ON POETRY

REZA SEYED HOSSEINI(b.Oct 14,1926/22 Mehr 1305,Ardebil,Azarbayejan,Iran - d.May 1,2009/11 Ordibehesht 1388,Tehran) was considered a prominent translator and journalist in Iran .His 2 volume book, MAKTAB HA YE ADABI or literary schools(1955), has been very popular before new generation of critics and intellectuals like Babak Ahmadi,Mohammad Mokhtari,Peyman Vahabzadeh,abdolali Dastgheib and others appear on the literary scenes of Iran and abroad.Seyed Hosseini who translated literature of the world into Persian, published 34 books,among them Limelight of Charlie Chaplin,Tempest of Albert Camus,Dream of Love of Maxim Gorky,L'Espoir or Man's Hope of Andre Malraux and his other work:anti-memoirs,On Defense of Intellectuals of Sartre,and others...
Reza Seyeh Hosseini had his eyes on poetry too. He translated Nazim Hekmat's selected poems from Turkish to Farsi.Also when Manuchehr Atashi,as a young poet from Bushehr moved to Tehran for continuing higher educations and decided to publish his poems as well,non of the publishers in Tehran wanted to risk his efforts and franchise for a new comer.At that point Reza Seyed Hosseini,a relatively young writer himself decided to take over and introduced the young poet by publishing his first book :AHANG E DIGAR,other song(1960).Again more than a decade later this was Seyed hosseini,the poetry lover who is to be instrumental in transferring Atashi from department of educaction to National Iranian Radio Television and its weekly journal, Tamasha.
Reza Seyed Hosseini who for years was editor-in-chief of Sokhan monthly ,a well known literary journal,died at age 83.
