Pourquoi Est Cet Âge Plus mauvais… ?

by Anna Akhmatova

Pourquoi cet âge est-il des âges plus mal que plus jeune ? Dans une
stupeur de peine et de crainte nous avoir non digités les blessures
les plus fétides et à gauche elles unhealed par nos mains ?

Dans l'ouest la lumière en chute rougeoie toujours, et les toits
groupés scintillent au soleil, mais ici la mort marque déjà les
portes avec des croix, et appelle à la craie les ravens, et les
ravens volent dedans.
