Vapoury Poem by Artan Gjyzel Hasani

stay like you are and do not change
even though it takes a lot of efforts

a woman is vapour in her natural form
warm
elusive
ethereal

stay steamy, girl,
stay away from the bergs
away from the cold dry people
away from the humans without memories...

otherwise,
they are going to condensate you with their coldness

dropp by drop
dripping...


they will make ethanol from your hot steam
they are going to drink you
they are going to get drunk with you
until they vomit you away...

dropp by drop
dripping

they are going to transform you
in a droplet of perfume
they are going to store you in a bottle
to sprinkle their vanity
each time they will need some scent

inside the glaciers of their skull
you will freeze forever
through the loneliness of their frost
and finally
you would be their first memory
and the only one.
