Chinese Poetic Writober 2025.
Notes:
• A collection of poems about various characters written during the Asiatober 2025 #asiatober_zoya25 • This year, I'd like to participate in this event with the poems in English. There is a collection like this in Russian on my FicBook profile (2024) • Maybe, not each day will be covered • The name of the collection is based on two Chinese idioms: 比翼双飞 bǐ yì shuāng fēi - to fly wing to wing (figuratively: to live in a perfect harmony, to be inseparable) 海枯石烂 hǎi kū shí làn - [until] the sea dries up and the stones rot (usually in oaths; figuratively: forever, forever and ever)

***

The melody in the night Doesn’t sound solemn: It is pledging, right, To fight back, to return him. And the scars on the back In the night hurt much more, And the burnt, blackish mark Shakes his heart to the core. And the rabbits — they are His reminders of happiness lost: It seems he after him, — in his sorrow, — became a ghost.
