ENTITLED TO
A TRANSLATION
Yes, that's really all I want : like the
cactus flower that blooms and everyone
gets surprised, I just want words brought
back from another world - I'll do the translation,
it can't be that difficult. Sitting in this room all
day just to snack on the fiber of dictionaries
does no one any good - the flavor is foul,
and the energy expended in eating can be
well put to other uses. I'm getting weak.
-
Have you ever seen a blind man in a movie
house? And if you did, what did you wonder?
They see a million things that aren't there,
and all the while they're quite aware of what
it is we all are watching. It's like that with
these words. Idea, and words, together,
entitled to a translation. Yes.
