for courageous yet struggling Ukrainian mothers
and the newborns of war:
cellar shelter
her newborn suckles
in sleep
French translation by Serge Tomé
abri dans une cave
son nouveau-né tète
en dormant
smoke-filled sky
beyond the cellar window ...
look on her baby's face
another
night of artillery fire
her breastmilk runs dry
French translation by Serge Tomé
un autre
nuit de tirs d'artillerie
son lait maternel se tarit
