Baudelaire (EN)


Impossibility of everything

Among the cosmic emptiness

Evil beauty

When it purrs inside 

Drunk

Off happiness, off love

Off booze, off drugs

Anyhow it pleases

As long as drunk

Far away

From brutalities of reality

Million wounded warriors scream

Strength of deep water

Graves of dark sea

Earth's drum beats

When universe slowly soughes

Coldness of logic

Its straigthness, absoluteness

Beside the mist of feelings

Weakness of flesh and blood

Fallibility of nerves

Nature's might 

Omnipotent greatness

Beside us, apes

To ground shall grumble

The marriage of stone and mortar

The power of steel

Rusts with the rain

Height of dreams

Separates them from the earth 

And from the all insulates

The coldness of gold

Steals the warmth

And freezes the one who hugs

Midst of slow time

Among the clock rate's vibrations

We are the shrews.
