Thought about making a thread to post a poem everyday. Or every few days. Hope you like it.
Macbeth, Act V, Scene V [She should have died hereafter]
William Shakespeare, 1564 - 1616
Macbeth speaks to Seyton, his servant, after learning of Lady Macbeth’s death
She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Christ
There goes another year in which I haven’t thought about You
Since I wrote my penultimate poem Easter
My life has changed so much
But I’m the same as ever
I still want to become a painter
Here are the pictures that I’ve done displayed here on the walls this evening.
They reveal to me strange perspectives into myself that make me think of You.
Christ
Life
See what I’ve unearthed
My paintings make me uneasy
I’m too passionate
Everything is tinted orange.
I’ve passed a sad day thinking about my friends
And reading my diary
Christ
A life crucified in this journal that I hold at arm’s length.
Wingspans
Rockets
Frenzy
Cries
Like a crashing aeroplane
That’s me.
Passion
Fire
A serial
Diary
No matter how much you try to stay silent
Sometimes you have to cry out
I’m the other way
Too sensitive
The iconoclastic poet and novelist Blaise Cendrars (Wikipedia page) was born Frédéric Louis Sauser in Switzerland in 1887.
Well, I didn’t understand one iota of the lyrics, then I looked harder and guess what? It’s in Hungarian Yeah there is a large community of Magyars living in Transylvania since the time it was a province of Austro-Hungaria, at some point was even conquered by Turks but they didn’t settle there. Only Germans and Hungarians have settled in Transylvania over the centuries.
Anyway the song makes me think of a cavalry battalion marching toward the battlefield.
EDIT: oh but it’s about love… weird
Lol well you know whenever someone from the forum finds something related to Croatia they tag me…so when i see something about Romania I tag you…that’s how it goes
I want to swim in the crystal oceans of your eyes,
I want to feel your precious heart beating,
As we float in ecstasy across the skies.
I long for your tender caress,
And the sweetness of your emotion,
I envy the clothes, that hold your every motion.
A simple touch would mean so much to me,
A simple kiss would set us free.
I feel you tremble as we embrace,
I hear you sigh, as I touch your face.
Beautiful and fascinating,
It would be cruel to keep me waiting.
Your love means everything to me,
You’re all I need, can’t you see?
