Слушать(AI)На уме
У меня на уме женщина
невинная, неприкрашенная, но
искренняя, пахнущая
яблоками и травой. Она одевает
сорочку или рубашку, её волосы
светло-каштановые и гладкие, и она
добрая и очень чистая —
без нарочитости
но у неё
нет фантазии…
И есть беспокойная,
гуляющая при луне девушка
или старуха, или обе вместе,
одетая в опал, тряпьё, перья
и оборванную тафту,
которая знает странные песни
но она — не добра…
Denise Levertov
Priscilla Denise Levertov (24 October 1923 – 20 December 1997) was an American poet. She was a recipient of the Lannan Literary Award for Poetry
