A Woman from Ashes by Hiva Panahi


In the era where all your knowledge transforms into papers
Papers that leaving you one by one
It is wind, huge wind, strange wind
You feel insecurity like a child with papers of kites
The era of big silence
huge without sky and kites
heartbeats out there on that duststorm
What a strange Eros
The eventual, of a hope
Hiva Panahi March 23/2018 NYC

A Woman from Ashes by Hiva Panahi

For death, I have sung

In a rainy night

I have sung

I sent it my white jasmine

I sent it my moon

For my death
I have sung...  2012, Athens

Μικρές Γκρίνιες Μιας Γυναίκας, Χίβα Παναχί

Αν ξανά πάω στην Αθήνα
Σε κάθε γειτονιά της θα ανάψω ένα κερί
Εναντία στο σκοτάδι που με εδίωκε τόσα χρονιά
Κι θα χαρίσω μια σταγόνα βροχής
Σε όλα τα σημεία που δάκρυζα

Hiva Panahi in day of poetry, nyrb NEWS with "Ash Person"


ASH PERSON by Hiva Pinahi
Dreams come from far away places
The stones, the birds and I take on new forms of life
Dreams have their own road
And we live far away these days, like dreams.
