This is a poem that all students grow to hate: strong modernist influence.

Carbonizate flori, noian de negru...

Sicrie negre, arse, de metal,

Veștminte funerare de mangal,

Negru profund, noian de negru...

Vibrau scântei de vis... noian de negru,

Carbonizat, amorul fumega —

Parfum de pene arse, și ploua...

Negru, numai noian de negru...

— — — — — — — — — — — —

Carbonised flowers, flood of blackness...

Black coffins, burned, metallic

Funeral garments of charcoal,

Deep black, flood of blackness...

Sparks of dreams vibrated... Flood of blackness,

Carbonised, the love was smoldering —

Perfume of burned feathers, and rain...

Black, only a flood of blackness...
