Aida Zilelian: Elegy for What I Cannot Write

I never wrote a poem about war. As a child every storm shook the walls of my home. I never wrote a poem about war. In classrooms I read the scene of Juliek playing his violin in the Giewitz snowfall. I never wrote a poem about war. At six, I was given thick-bound books filled with pages of my decapitated poets. I never wrote a poem about war. All my dears are toiling, fervent as they cry out the death tolls of children. I never wrote a poem about war. I haven’t the right. How can I ever know those sorrows. I dare not try. I never wrote a poem about war. Not even today when a cellist played K[h]atchaturian on a pile of wreckage in Beirut. I’ll never write a poem about war. What can I say that hasn’t been said, when I’m silenced into prayer for the dead and the dying. Aida Zilelian lives in New York City. This poem appeared in <a href="https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/28214564/610493890472839064#">Decelaration</a>.

Tina Demirdjian: ORANGES FROM THE BOSPHORUS

She fed me oranges and my worries went away on the road from the Bosphorus I spit the seeds out the window of the small white car speeding down the mountain at fifteen I planted my memory there on the dirt road and found the beginning of where my skin was born on the hands of all my grandmothers waving to me on that dirt road; shouting their stories in the wind so I can hear their echo even in the speeding car, and carry voices in my pocket eating oranges laughing and telling jokes in another language, and smiling each time I see an old woman reminding me of all my grandmothers and all their sad eyes staring at me, watching me leave the land where they were born; hoping I take a piece of them with me to remember when I am old. 1999

Diana Der-Hovanessian: This is for Zarif

who used to draw in the mud of the water bank with a stick and weave marvelous stories for her little boy in a village called Tadem, who used to decorate the tops of pastry with cut outs of fantastic figures; this is for Zarif who did needlework passably well and figures faster than any man. This is for Zarif who prayed with two hands and who wrote to her son that although she could not watch him while he was away at school she knew he would want to be like the other good men in his family who did not smoke. This is for that simple woman who did not teach her son to be a revolutionary but when revolution came, hid a gun for him in the garden, against bad days. This is for Zarif whom the Turks beat, asking the whereabouts of that son; for Zarif who said over and over again I do no know, although she did. This is for Zarif whose arm was smashed then made raw then broken to pieces then cut off while she repeated when she waked she did not know. This is for one-armed Zarif who lived through hell; who lived to see her grandchildren in another world, this is for her who once held my right hand in her left and never told me what I must do with mine.
