Gülseli İnal (1947- ….) All Aflame Was Desertion The smarting agony in my soul was stil flowing in the courtyard crushed by the magnolia suddenly I was awaiting the fresh sprouts the adventure of the root in the soil of the ivy all aflame was desertion
suddenly unexpectedly the gren twinge crushed that which raced through your eyes the mouth making promises to the false stars receding was the flowing twinge alonge the dead river
my hair the light gren of the nile my skin the light gren of the nile my strange dark eyes and gaze were watching incessantly that which went in the ruby spinning Wheel waters of the river
on my body lit up the day’s moss together with the bkeleton of a flower my voice echoed in your the lusty magnolia in your gaze. (Translated by Suat Karantay, 101Poems by 101Poets An Anthology of Turkish Poetry)
