POEM BY ALEXANDRA BAKONIKA

POEMS IN LATIN

They rolled around conflagrated by passion

still in seventh heaven by his kisses

she thought it was raining but he corrected her

it isn’t rain but the crackling of the dry wood

the gardener is burning outside.

They got dressed and after he offered her a drink

he opened a book and read Horatio’s poetry

from the original version

he red some erotic hymns

with his accent trills and sounds

and the juicy words in Latin

after their lovemaking they finished with verse
