Boris Pasternak - Sultry Night
Work rating: Low

It drizzled, but not even grasses 
Would bend within the bag of storm; 
Dust only gulped its rain in pellets, 
The iron roof-in powder form. 

The village did not hope for healing. 
Deep as a swoon the poppies yearned 
Among the rye in inflammation, 
And God in fever tossed and turned. 

In all the sleepless, universal, 
The damp and orphaned latitude, 
The sighs and moans, their posts deserting, 
Fled with the whirlwind in pursuit. 

Behind them ran blind slanting raindrops 
Hard on their heels, and by the fence 
The wind and dripping branches argued- 
My heart stood still-at my expense. 

I felt this dreadful garden chatter 
Would last forever, since the street 
Would also notice me, and mutter
With bushes, rain and window shutter.
 
No way to challenge my defeat- 
They`d argue, talk me off my feet.
