After Car Accident Poem by Liza Sud

After Car Accident

Brik has found her after car accident,
she was helpless like a small dog,
lying on the road, she was wounded
And he helped her and took her home,

There he healed her, there he was feeding her,
with mysterious tasty corn.
taught by music of love and reading of
all the secular books of old.

Before sleep he recited Balmont,
She was seeing him as a dove,
he seemed pure like white romantic,
And she took him for real love.

But them he felt strong desire,
he was looking at her all nights.
And then he proposed her to marry.
She was 15. He - 45.

She was tired of him, his passion,
of his constant look in her eyes,
But when once she asked him fo loving -
Couldn't satisfy her for three times!

***
Брик нашел ее после аварии,
столь беспомощную, как щенок,
на дороге лежащую, раненую,
ее в дом к себе взял с собой.

Он ее там выходил, вылечил
зерном вкусным кормил, таинственным,
книги светские и старинные
он читал ей под песни стильные.

Перед сном он читал ей Бальмонта,
Она голубя видела в нем,
Брик казался ей чистым романтиком,
и что это была Любовь!

Но в нем вспыхнуло вдруг желание,
и все ночи он ею любовался,
и он ей предлагал обвенчаться,
ему - сорок пять, ей - пятнадцать.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Daniel Brick 16 September 2016

The first three stanzas are quite tender and take the situation of caring for the wounded person quite seriously. This attitude toward the rescuer climaxes in the third stanza with the man, the healer, being seen as a dove, a white romantic, real love. B-U-T the last stanza drops this romantic tone. Is it meant to be taken lightly? It seems to me to deflate the heightened spirit up to this last stanza. SHE WAS TIRED OF HIM and his passion - I don't see the reason for this turn of things - quite suddenly - from the 3rd to the 4th stanza. What has happened to the romantic emotions of the 3rd? ? ?
