Holy Spring

by Dylan Thomas

O

Out of a bed of love

When that immortal hospital made one more moove to soothe

The curless counted body,

And ruin and his causes

Over the barbed and shooting sea assumed an army

And swept into our wounds and houses,

I climb to greet the war in which I have no heart but only

That one dark I owe my light,

Call for confessor and wiser mirror but there is none

To glow after the god stoning night

And I am struck as lonely as a holy marker by the sun

No

Praise that the spring time is all

Gabriel and radiant shrubbery as the morning grows joyful

Out of the woebegone pyre

And the multitude's sultry tear turns cool on the weeping wall,

My arising prodgidal

Sun the father his quiver full of the infants of pure fire,

But blessed be hail and upheaval

That uncalm still it is sure alone to stand and sing

Alone in the husk of man's home

And the mother and toppling house of the holy spring,

If only for a last time.

Nincs még egy hónapja, hogy meghalt Adrienne Rich, emlékeznék rá az egyik versével:


Adrienne Rich:

Implosions

The world's
not wanton
only wild and wavering

I wanted to choose words that even you
would have to be changed by

Take the word
of my pulse, loving and ordinary
Send out your signals, hoist
your dark scribbled flags
but take
my hand

All wars are useless to the dead

My hands are knotted in the rope
and I cannot sound the bell

My hands are frozen to the switch
and I cannot throw it

The foot is in the wheel

When it's finished and we're lying
in a stubble of blistered flowers
eyes gaping, mouths staring
dusted with crushed arterial blues

I'll have done nothing
even for you?

a Destroy All Monster 1973 és 1979 között működött, létezett, Cary Loren, Mike Kelley, Niagara, Jim Shaw szövegeivel, ezt érdemes elolvasni:

2012 január 31.-én meghalt Mike Kelley, aki a legjelentősebb kortárs képzőművészek egyike volt. A munkái sokféle problémakörre terjedtek ki, technikailag, eszközkészlet szempontjából is szerteágazóak. Több elismerést és díjat is kapott, de közel sem annyit, mint amennyit a munkáinak sokrétűsége, mélysége és komolysága indokolt volna. Számomra nagyon fontos és hiteles művész volt.
