ON THE TWO HUNDREDTH AND NINTH DAY OF THE YEAR

Midnight, and finishing a fourth translation
this night, I get a modicum of peace and calm
from the sorrows, regrets and desires that have
raged through my mind across the hours
of the late evening. I have taken the words
of the dead and with them quenched that
tempest which, for darkling time, was me,
now brimming with borrowed peace.
