Hearts. Poems by Steinunn Sigurðardóttir.
II
LOVE is greatest in the morning
after morning coffee
before going to work.
Between eight and eight-thirty, by far. That's when hugs are the warmest, before
the day is fading.
---
THE EXPECTATION is most painful in the afternoon.
around six o'clock.
The future flows from the past,
There is a moment in between, before dinner. That's when people shorten their
age, exactly then.
---
DEATH itself is greatest in the morning, before dawn, after a long night, when people succumb to diseases with Latin names that could be worn on a flower. Or old age strikes with a heel, after a struggle with boredom.
At first light, the neat line on the bank of the fog lengthens
much.
People of all nations are drowning in the mist
Mother of the road, half-happy.
Don't let it show, screen
by ferryman, say as much as possible. Discussion topics emptied
and language difficulties.
