Rilke´s epitaph

Rose, oh pure contradiction, joy
of being No-one´s sleep under so many
lids.
[translation Stephen Mitchell]

… said j.b.

“One who writes a poem, however, writes it not because he courts fame with posterity, although often he hopes that a poem will outlive him, at least briefly. One who writes a poem writes it because the language prompts, or simply dictates, the next line. Beginning a poem, the poet as a rule doesn´t know [...]

‘open access’ wireless network WLANComtrend, jonka varassa olen, signaali on parhaimmillaan jotain 500 kiloa, ja yhteys toimii koska toimii, mutta gracias siitäkin… olen kuunnellut muutamaan kertaan dylanin uuden levyn ‘modern times’, kyllähän se on upea ‘trilogian’ päätös, enkä yhtään ihmettele, että jotkut ovat ehdottaneet hänelle kirjallisuuden nobelia… hirveästi illuusioita ja uskoa ihmiseen ei enää ‘never [...]

from behind the sauna

Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different. The good poet welds his theft into a whole of feeling which is unique, utterly different from that from which it was torn; the bad poet throws it into something [...]

ja etukäteen on hehkutettu, niin pitihän ne tietysti etsiä, bob dylanin ‘modern times’ - levyn tekstit. olihan siinä työnsä, mutta netissähän on tunnetusti kaikki. linkkiä en laita kun levy ei ole edes ilmestyny ja matskuhan on tietysti zimmermannin copyrightia.

Finland by Monty Python

Chorus: Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Pony trekking or camping,
Or just watching TV.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
It’s the country for me.
Verse: You’re so near to Russia,
So far from Japan.
Quite a long way from Cairo,
Lots of miles from Vietnam.
Chorus: Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Eating breakfast or dinner,
Or snack lunch in the [...]

La Fraisne by Ezra Pound

For I was a gaunt, grave councillor,
Being in all things wise, and very old;
But I have put aside this folly and the cold
That old age weareth for a cloak.
I was quite strong—at least they said so—
The young men at the sword-play;
But I have put aside this folly, being gay
In another fashion that more suiteth me.
I [...]

Catherine De Barra
You’ve murdered my thinking
Gave you my heart
You left the thing stinking
I’d shake from your spell
If it weren’t for my drinking
The wind bites more bitter
With each light of morning
I envy the road
The ground you tread under
I envy the wind
Your hair riding over
I envy the pillow
Your head rests and slumbers
I envy to murderous
Envy your lover
‘Til [...]
