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)

Reading the stars in the people’s eyes: Lines of the body will tell no lies To someone so skillful as you. If only, — back then, — I knew How the words of despair might hurt, Into what, — light and sparkle, — convert… Now I claim No need to blame, Destroy yourself: The problem is The fate itself. In our common pain, — can’t escape the rain: Though the years go by, we still adhere. What really matters is that you’re here. Your art won’t kill! Those words were ill! What should I feel? Seeing your smile, — so rare; If only I could take care, With a brush and canvas — draw… You read the stars to protect the law.
