The Literary Armenian News

What Is?

 

Marvelous

Metronomed

Silent but traceable

Ahead of its emotions calling

Pushing for growth without panic

A recipe discarded

A new one forged in retrospect

Panic

Edit mercilessly

Sink

Swim

Sigh

Read

Cross the finish line half naked,

Parched,

Still singing

Ever painting

Running shoes

 From reality

 Burning


A poem

A poem

A poem

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
