    	SUFFICIENT UNTO THE DAY

	by Anahit Haroutiunyan
	translated by Diana Der-Hovanessian


        The wind is knocking at the door
	shaking glass and window sill.
	Let me open it to try
	keeping that wild wind still.
	Oh, fine. The wind is inside now
	mixing papers, letters, lists
	with my poems on the desk
	stirring them hand over fist.
	Well. Let them blow away. All
	blow, outside the door,
	all mismatched and mis-marked
	perhaps to be seen no more.
	Okay, as long as work itself survives.
	Okay, as long as a tomorrow arrives.
