Hej RM..
Kort efter jeg her til morgen havde sprættet Elsa Gress’ Udsigter og Indsigter (1981) op, faldt mine øjne på Tanne, der midt i det sørgmodige altid var så umådelig kraftfuld og smuk en poet, og hvad egner sig vel bedre i et lille Mellemrum, end netop kragens dejlige tæer…
Aria to Ariel
When I was a child, and dreams were lucid and strong,
I dreamt always of this one thing – of wings, of wings.
Fighting dwarves and giants of evil, when restless and young,
I yearned for this thing above all – for wings, for wings.
Now, leaving this land to which I shall always belong,
These brooding blie hills, I thank you for lending me wings.
Ariel, who became Icarus. Crashing. Crushed now, and still.
Word wings have you lent me. Shakespeare’s melodious tonque.
Steel wings of your trecherous bird, soaring high, like a song.
Sweet Ariel, safe at last, rest under your sky on the hill,
My Ariel, for whom I became poet, defying the end,
The knowledge of coming departure, forever eroding
Life. In the stark stillness of night or the gaudy, exploding
Sunburst. My fugitive love. Brother. Son. Father and friend.
Always my spirit of air, till the last departure of all,
When I knew you were no longer mine, having left me already
For Fate. Only Death and I were there, quiet and steady,
That day, and the hour to come when I felt you fall.
- Karen Blixen to Denys Finch Hatton, on leaving Africa.
Håber du trods truende skyer, nyder dagen med en kop dampende kaffe, ja måske ligefrem af afrikansk herkomst..;)
mvh

- der grundet valget sir til indvandreren: når politikeren i vor tid taler så meget om integration, da mener denne bare, at du skal lære at gradbøje din integritet til den støver, lade dig internere og underkaste et land fyldt med regler, regler, regler, påbud og forbud, lige indtil du bønfalder Jesus om selvbeherskelse, og dét på rigsdansk! ;)
