Poetry from Tetyana Hrytsan-Chonka

THE EYES OF THE UKRAINIAN LAND

In the dripping memories of love,

 In the morning, I see the light, the stars.

Her blessed eyes, her holy request. 

I am with you, even if the knitting needles

Want to measure time.

I am with you, I am by your side.

  Love tenderly in your thoughts,

 My Word is always with you,

The blue gaze is the God of Love.

The earthly and blessed Savior…

Her dawning eyes, her girlish longings,

 Her bright movements, Her happy hands,

Her blessed Yasas, her excessive, ours 

Sensual worlds are flooded with tears for years…

 We have been washing ourselves in blood for too long. 

 We have merged inhumanly with the war,

 We haven’t prayed in essence yet.

 The enemy is still pressing on our world.

 Happy Eyes – seven centuries, save your child,

 Wash the waters, sanctify the sun.

ОЧІ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ЗЕМЛІ

У краплистих споминах кохання,

 Зрання, я бачу світло, зоряниці.

Її блаженні очі, її святе прохання. 

Я з вами, навіть якщо спиці

Охотять змірювати час.

Я з вами,  я побіля вас.

  Кохайтесь ніжно  в Помислові,

 Із вами завше моє Слово,

Блакитний позір – Бог Любові.

Землистий і блаженний Спас…

Її досвітні Очі, її жаги дівочі,

 Її яскраві рухи, її щасливі руки,

Її блаженні Яси, її надмірні , наші 

Чуттєві міри пливуть сльозами рік…

 Ми надто довго в крові мились. 

 Ми нелюдськи з війною  злились,

 Ми ще за суттю й не молились.

 Ще тисне ворог  на наш світ.

 Щасливі Очі – сім століть, чадо спасіть,

 Омийте води, сонце освятіть.

A precious day of life.


Find me among a thousand buds,
Accept me, wrap me with the mourning
Of my yesterday’s shadow,
My transparent frothy
Words….
I am alive.
Bring me the first kiss,
Swallow the tears of earthly gifts….
Accept God’s wonders.
I am alive….
In the lavender light, birds
Are flying home,
Roofs
Covered with feathers of songs,
Day….
I am in the sky, among the birds,
Carrying water, sprinkling sins
Of yesterday’s kin….
I am from the East….
I will learn your Words,
I will give all of myself
To the people…

Цінний день життя

 Знайди мене серед тисячі бруньок,

 Прийми мене, огорни сумом 

Моєї вчорашньої тіні,

 Мої прозорі пінні

 Слова….

 Я жива.

 Принеси мені перший цілунок,

 Проковтни сліз наземних дарунок….

 Прийми Божі дива.

 Я жива…

 У лавандовім світлі птахи,

 Прилітають додому, 

Дахи 

Вкрилися пір’ям пісень, 

День….

 Я у небі, поміж птахів,

 Ношу воду, шпую* гріхи

Вчорашнього роду…

 Я зі Сходу….

 Я навчуся твоїм Словам, 

Я всю себе віддам

Народу….

Три роки… 

Три століття пройдуть у стоптаному часі, 

Три трійки, повноліттям 

Згребуть прорив… 

Бики пасуть 

Маленького ребристого папугу… 

Над нами — пекло, під нами — біль, наруга… 

У чому суть? Кого несуть? 

Приймати слід весни у простори…

 Ми зможемо — у тому й суть. 

Ми зможемо — ми медозбори.

Я що? Я куди?

 А геній прорікло дня… 

Іду в розповсюджені руки. 

Я — ти, Я — земля…

 Злітаються круки.

 У просторі — море буття, 

У просторі — простір і звуки… 

Тепер тобі Я — вже не Я, 

Тепер — тільки стуки.

Закрився малесенький день 

У темному коробі ночі. 

Я ще добіжу, 

Я ще долечу До неба, 

До зір серед ночі…

У сні загубила печаль, 

На ложі лишила вуаль. 

У стомленім плесі 

Купаються діти… 

Де ти? А де я? 

У небі — розжеврені квіти.

(Англійською)

Three Years… 

Three centuries will pass in worn-out time, 

Three threes, with coming of age, 

Will gather breakthrough… 

Bulls graze A tiny ribbed parrot…

 Above us — hell, beneath — pain, disgrace…

 What is the truth? Whom do they carry? 

We must embrace the spring’s vast space… 

We can — that is the truth. We can — we are honey-gatherers.

What am I? Where to? 

And genius spoke of day… 

I walk into outstretched hands.

 I am — you, I am — the land… 

The ravens gather.

 In space — the sea of being,

 In space — space itself, and sound… 

Now to you I am no longer I, 

Now — only pounding.

A tiny day has closed 

Inside the dark box of night.

 I’ll still run, I’ll still fly To the sky, 

To stars in the night…

In sleep, sorrow was lost, 

On the bed, a veil was left. 

In the weary shallows Children bathe…

 Where are you? 

And where am I?

 In the sky — flowers, glowing red.

(Французькою)

Trois ans… Trois siècles passeront dans le temps usé, Trois fois trois, à la majorité, Ramasseront l’élan… Les taureaux paissent Un petit perroquet nervuré… Au-dessus — l’enfer, en dessous — douleur, outrage… Quel est le sens ? Qui est porté ? Il faut accueillir le printemps dans l’espace… Nous pouvons — voilà le sens. Nous pouvons — nous sommes les cueilleurs de miel.

Moi, quoi ? Où aller ? Et le génie a parlé du jour… Je vais vers les mains ouvertes. Je suis — toi, je suis — la terre… Les corbeaux s’assemblent. Dans l’espace — une mer d’être, Dans l’espace — l’espace, et les sons… Maintenant, pour toi, je ne suis plus moi, Maintenant — seulement des battements.

Un tout petit jour s’est fermé Dans la boîte sombre de la nuit. Je vais encore courir, Je vais encore voler Vers le ciel, Vers les étoiles dans la nuit…

Dans le rêve, la tristesse s’est perdue, Sur le lit, un voile est resté. Dans les eaux fatiguées Les enfants se baignent… Où es-tu ? Et moi, où suis-je ? Dans le ciel — des fleurs rougeoyantes.

(Угорською)

Három év… Három évszázad lép át a koptatott időn, Három hármas, nagykorúsággal Gyűjti az áttörést… Bikák legelnek Egy apró, bordázott papagájt… Felettünk — pokol, alattunk — fájdalom, gyalázat… Mi az értelme? Kit visznek? Fogadni kell a tavaszt a terekben… Meg tudjuk tenni — ez a lényeg. Meg tudjuk tenni — mi vagyunk a mézgyűjtők.

Mi vagyok én? Hová? És a géniusz kimondta a napot… Nyújtott kezekbe lépek. Én — te vagyok, én — a föld… Gyülekeznek a varjak. A térben — a lét tengere, A térben — tér és hangok… Most már neked én — nem én, Most — csak dobbanások.

Bezárult egy aprócska nap Az éjszaka sötét dobozában. Még futok, Még repülök Az ég felé, A csillagokhoz az éjszakában…

Álomban elveszett a bánat, Az ágyon fátyol maradt. A fáradt vízben Gyermekek fürdenek… Hol vagy te? És én hol vagyok? Az égen — lángoló virágok.

Alex S. Johnson interviews Molly Marie Kent

THE SUPREME: AN INTERVIEW WITH MOLLY MARIE KENT

By Alex S. Johnson

Molly Marie Kent is quite simply one of the most electrifying creators in the rising metal underground. Onstage she is The Supreme, the Witch Queen architect behind Nashville’s rising Doom Stoner metal phenomenon Omenbringer, a band designed to seduce visually and devastate sonically.” She has built Omenbringer as a witch-coated, sex-positive, fantasy-driven metal coven, a project where spectacle and substance coexist, a band that looks like a ritual and sounds like a thunderstorm.

From the moment she appeared in my virtual studio, I felt that unmistakable charge—the recognition of someone operating from sovereignty, not performance.

I began with lineage. “You’ve talked about your inspiration coming from your background in performance, in burlesque,” I said, “and also Tolkien, Bettie Page… Frank Frazetta…the thiccness, right?”

“That’s right,” she said.

I told her how my collaborator Lee Bailes (screenwriter, director, author/poet) and I had been talking about writing a movie called Big Titty Goth Girlfriend, and how uncanny it was when her song appeared.

“It’s almost like your song manifested,” I said. “We were both like, whoa, dude. There it is.”

She laughed, delighted by the synchronicity.

I told her how performances like “Stir the Cauldron” strike me as “next level… really, really amazing when you have a woman who’s not afraid of being both sovereign and sexual.” She nodded, fully inhabiting that duality.

When I asked about her female musical inspirations, she didn’t hesitate. “Cherie Currie, amazing, I love The Runaways and Joan Jett, I love the raw sexual energy of that band.”

But she gravitates toward artists with their own worlds: “Amy Winehouse is an enormous influence… her voice, her raw realness in her lyrics.” She added Alison Krauss for “beautiful singing,” and then pivoted to the frontmen who shaped her: “Phil Lynott is the greatest frontman of all time. And I’ll stand on that. I’ll die on that hill.” Ozzy Osbourne follows immediately.

She loves Black Sabbath for their paradox: “They are perceived as this dark and evil band, but really a lot of their lyrics are very, very positive… almost like spells and witchcraft of positivity.” Iron Maiden is another pillar: “I love storytelling… I like Marty Robbins… I like all kinds of music that tells stories.” Her heart, she said, “is definitely living all the time” in classic rock.

What fascinates me most is how she threads classical music into doom metal. “A lot of our influence… is actually from classical music,” she said. “Distinctly and very obviously would be A Night on Bald Mountain by Mussorgsky. There are multiple themes within Thicc Darkness (Omenbringer’s debut full-length) that come directly from that piece of music.”

She wants her music to “seem vaguely familiar… likened to the greats… but fresh.”

Fantasia was her gateway drug. “I was very, very much into Fantasia,” she said. “The devil comes to earth and is having a crazy party… that animation sequence is incredible… it gives me chills. It has titties in it, you know? Like, it is epic.”

When we talked about the Omenbringer song Big Tiddy Goth Girlfriend, she revealed the deeper spellwork behind the camp. “Part of our mission as a band is to diversify the metal scene… to make women feel empowered and comfortable to come and have their tits out at our shows.”

She calls her fanbase “our coven of kindness.” And she emphasized the importance of trans fans: “Especially our trans Big Titty goth girlfriends… we want them to feel comfortable, seen, safe… their lives are hard enough already.”

Safety is ritual. “At any time… if you feel uncomfortable, there’s one of five of our band members, or 500 of our actual coven members, that are gonna make sure that you get to your vehicle safely.”

The song itself was a manifestation spell. “It was actually about two of my muses… I wanted to befriend them… my spell has come true. They are both very good friends of mine now.”

She added, “We do real magic when we’re writing our songs… manifesting real and powerful wishes.”

We drifted into literature—Baudelaire, Whitman, Stoker, Tolkien—because that’s where both our hearts live. She told me about “Chevalure,” her Baudelaire‑inspired song: “This poem… describes the fascination I have with this very particular type of woman… long, black, flowing hair… perfumed with cigarettes and roses.” She studied French in college: “I do speak French.” I told her I majored in Comparative Literature and have translated Baudelaire.

Her second album, A Night on Black Mountain, is a concept album: “laying siege to an evil witch’s castle… failing miserably… shipwrecking on her castle… being tortured in the dungeon… having to fight a dragon… narrowly escaping through a trap door.”

She’s pushing herself to write “as beautifully as possible… with as much literary nods as possible.” She loves hymnal language—“ye this, ye that”—and avoids repetitive choruses: “I want people to have a hard time remembering the lyrics… it’s tricky on purpose.”

When I asked about her occult origins, she went straight to childhood. “I was leaning into the occult as a young person… doing spells with my other witchy friends in middle school.”

Church repelled her: “I hated going to church… big ugly megachurch ones.” Fantasia seduced her. As she matured, she embraced her true persona: “If you’re fortunate and brave, you can lean fully into your true self… The Supreme is not a character. It is me at my most fancy, exuberant, wild side.”

She quoted Whitman unknowingly—“we all contain multitudes”—and I pointed it out. She laughed: “I didn’t know that came from him.”

Her spiritual path moved from Christianity to atheism to Satanism to something fluid. “Whatever I feel like at the time,” she said. She identifies with Satan partly because “I really love trolling the Christians.”

Mushrooms became medicine. “Every time I buy mushrooms, I can feel that very distinctly.” She keeps a tin labeled “souvenirs from my mushroom trip,” filled with handwritten revelations. One lesson: “I don’t have to love someone… I can love someone from afar.”

Her future album Sinister Trip will be “a dark mushroom trip… exploring death as a theme.”

When I asked about her persona, she said it’s “an amalgamation of Maleficent… Elvira… Dolly Parton… and Bettie Page.” She wants to be “everybody in the South’s honorary goth auntie… very campy, very sexy… but also very generous, very giving.”

Her ambitions are colossal. “We’re gonna be the next legacy band… the next Black Sabbath… Kiss meets Black Sabbath.” She imagines playing the Sphere in Las Vegas: “They turn the Sphere into a giant orb with my eyes… flying over the audience on my broom… we’re gonna be the biggest band in the world.”

I told her, “Yeah, you are.”

She laughed and said she wants a statue downtown: “Just like Bettie Page… I’ll be the third witch downtown.”

We closed with gratitude. “Thank you so much for having me,” she said. “Thoughtful questions.”

“Thank you so much, Molly.”

“Have a great day.”

“You too.”

Poetry from Delsa López Lorenzo

Little angels of divine

Mother-of-pearl Transformed into love, art, and tenderness, he strove to mold his little angels, yet his partner—scornful of sculpture— preferred to sate their appetites instead. 

And amidst endeavors scattered by the wind, and self-centered banners serving as mottos, art was dissuaded from the attempt to weigh the dilemmas of being and non-being. 

Thus, yearnings dissolved into the mist, into a lost dream that fades away, into a mold shaped solely by pleasure.

 And those little angels of divine mother-of-pearl, absent, could not witness the destiny of their wings, which still hang waiting to be born.

Poetry from Menda Vreto

THE LIGHT WE LEAVE BEHIND

Give me your hand.

We do not need to know

where the road will end.

There are wounds without scars,

silences hidden behind smiles,

and hearts that forget

how to ask for light.

Stay close.

Sometimes presence alone

is a form of love.

A hand can become a bridge,

a word can become a shelter,

a small kindness

can travel farther than we know.

Nothing given with love disappears.

It takes root quietly

in the heart of another

and waits for its season to shine.

So, when you meet tired eyes,

do not turn away.

Be the light

you once needed yourself.

Give me your hand.

Not to walk ahead,

not to arrive first,

but to arrive together.

Leaving no one behind.

Poetry from Katica Protić

I’M AFRAID OF LOVE

No, I don’t like mornings that awaken me

with a tear in my eye.

I don’t like vanity that poisons the soul,

nor a heart filled with sorrow and pain,

a pain that breaks the sighs,

that breaks everything

that was once beautiful.

It turns all the beauty of living

into the darkness of night.

A colorful rose,

just beginning to bloom,

is broken by the wind,

its crown shattered in blossom

just as it begins to form.

I don’t like

that I have become a face with many faces,

hiding my sorrow

behind a mask of smiles.

I exchanged the beauty

of awakening mornings

for the darkness of twilight.

I became my own marionette,

with strings in my hands,

strings of different colors.

I weave them

into the colors of my face

according to my needs.

And yet,

if only I could bring back

the old me,

place her once again

upon the pedestal of truth,

not lies…

Because a mask itself is a lie

that hides the truth.

If only I could

love again—

I’m afraid of love.

I’m afraid of the night

that brings pain with it.

I’m afraid of dying once again.

I’m afraid of a kiss,

afraid that it might intoxicate me.

Because I would sink

into a delirium

with no way back.

Poetry from Shah Jehan Ashrafi

INCOGNITO

Only my woolen garb,

No silk, no velvet anymore.

A banished princess.

No glitz, genuine to the core.

Dazzling diamonds

Forlorn.

Identity card torn.

The abyss of incognito,

A wise dish.

A clumsy descent,

A firm wish.

My bumpy skin,

Coarse as the desert sand.

A bold challenge to the milky trend.

Hardships, Destitution, swirling gloom,

The advent of the persona’s doom.

While the treacherous sun sleeps in clandestinity,

I cross the threshold of eternity.

The towering crowd denies my existence.

Yet, I am dead set

To claim subsistence.

Poetry from Dr. HC Rozalia Aleksandrova

WATER

For a breath of air 

Struggles Water.

An altar of magic

Of Mother Earth.

It speaks differently.

It`s excited with the wind.

It thirsts for love.

And Goodness.

It can purify

Man and All.

And a small drop

Changes the World.

From the geyser gushing

To the white glacier

Water sacred

Go with Love.

Water is our

Passionate body.

And as a gift it accepts

In an instant the thought.

It skillfully heals

The boundless Whole.

And tenderly loves.

It loves the World.
