THE SUMMER TALE (DEUS HIC, 1)

Rome is the hem home of ice cream
and for generations, burgeys and pilgrims ylyk,
this glade folk, in joye and blisse at mete,
have forsaken dessert at the Inn
for the simple plesance
af sitting outside with a takeaway cone.
The last Papa Pope Johannes Paulus Tweye,
a preest holy and gay,
used to have tubs of hos favourite flavour, marron glacé,
delivered to his summer residence.
Thanked be God, in wele and habudaunce!

osv. Fra Caroline Bergvalls Meddle English. Den ser rigtigt spændende ud.

Some wanted to leave their body behind and couldn't-

som ønsket å legge sin kropp bak seg og kunne ikke

Some couldn't neither take it with them nor leave it behind-

som kunne verken ta den med seg eller legge den igjen

Some are laughed at some spat out some are dragged into the crowd-

som blir ledd av blir spyttet ut som blir trukket inn i mengden

Some bodies are forgotten in the language compounds-

Some immense pressure is applied on to the forgetting os the ecosystems som escape from-

Some bodies like languages simply dissapear-

noen kropper liksom språk blir simpelthen borte

Some or many are being dissapeared

noen eller mange er blitt borte

Some or many dissapear-

noen eller mange blir borte

Some or many that dissapeared arise in some or many of us-

noen eller mange som ble borte reiser seg i noen eller mange av oss

Some that arise in some of us arise in many of us-

noen som reiser seg i noen av oss reiser seg i mange av oss
