GLORJANA VEBER
LITERATURE AREA

Selected by : ŠKUC Association,, Ljubljana, Slovenia
State : Slovenia

Her poetry reflects socially-critical and sociological topics. She concentrates on her environment, Slovenia and the three periods of transition: Yugoslavia, Slovenia, and Europe, on the human and on the research of the human's inner code in relation to the other world. Here she introduces her cycle of poems called The Seven Doors, which consists of the same number of poems or symbols, seven points/doors which represent the entrance and exit for different art languages of individuals, groups, societies, which flow into one another, but at the same time stay true to themselves.

citazione

The Seven Gates
The First Gate
Throw the hand from Skopje and take off your shoes.

Naked fingers from closed eyes, handle grabbed into rusty night.
The snow of muscles lifts feet. Inhalation,
cut out, aged to the railway station. Exhalation,
dressed as a parade of plumage,
like cold concrete. Railway station, sparrow,
rail bond, satan.
Borrow new lungs and run, the rails
convey breathing to Skopje.
Locomotives in winter, don't throw salt.
2008 less snow, crises in ovens burn cold.
Even dogs hold their buttons. Soot
tinkles from chimney sweeps towards the bottom of European laughter.
Black track rasps to red traffic lights.
“You never enter, there was no way to descend.”
