Oh the literary studies
The best I could do for myself was to learn how to forgive myself for my own sins
Just have finished my retreat trip to Viipuri and kinda oh what a wonderful place to be in summer! Trains are FULL , because basically everyone is running away from the huge city to get a breath
I'm not sure, but (!) maybe a bowl of grapes fixes everything?
English is not my native language. Today I have discovered that my weird Near-British accent with a forced RRR sound probably came from this man and the period when I was 15 and ADORED his music. Ah thank you Will for teaching me your tricks 🙏
Tähdelle
Kun olin pieni
Tiesin jo,
Ettei tähteä saa koskettaa.
Se on valtavan suuri,
Niin mahtava, kirkas,
Ja olisi ennemmin kuollut,
Kuin sitä ois halannut.
Tähdet on näkyjä
Eikä niitä voi saavuttaa.
Olen ikinä ollut peloissain.
Tähdethän peloittaa.
Niillä voi palaa
Vain hetkessä
Eikä käsitä sitä.
Mitenhän uskoo sellaisen voiman
Pystyvän rakastaa lempeästi
Ja paistaa hellästi
Sen valoin ylittävin
Sisältäpäin viriävin.
Mistähän tietää
Että se ei ole ydinvoima?
Mistähän tietää
Että on vielä elossa?
Mutta uskalsin kerran
Kosketin tähteä.
Minä jäljetin poskensa
Ja aistin sormillain kuumia kyyneleitä,
Ne oli isot, kuin tähtikin on,
Kuin valtameren pisarat,
Valtameren, joka kiehuu,
Paloin kun aistin ne.
Oisin varmasti tuhkana nyt,
Mutta palo on hellä,
Ja sen lämpö niin hyvä,
Etten jaksa palata avaruuteen.
En voi jättää tähteä enää.
Niin pelokkaana. Niin pienenä.
En mä voi
En mä voi
Koska tähdet
Voi, nuo tähdet,
Ne palaa kirkkaasti,
Ne palaa kuumasti,
Ei ne voi,
Ei ne voi,
Astua taa,
Pois kääntyä,
Poistua lahdelle.
Voi palaa tuhkaksi säteissä
Mutta pelkoa ilman.

So, I wrote a blank verse the other day and just want to leave it there. Adore dog metaphors, as corny as that.
POEM TO STRAY DOGS
I feel like a stray dog
From time to time
Led to different directions.
I have no will of my own.
My legs tumble,
I fumble.
I wish I could love
Everyone.
Though there's always pain
I'm inflicting
By warming someone else
With my thin, sick belly.
Why can I not
Warm the whole world?
Why is there always someone
Who feels cold?
I'm letting my teeth
Close on my fur.
I'm pulling on it
Until my nerves ignite.
You all cry,
I can only tremble
And fumble.
How do I warm everyone?
I try to tear my skin apart.
Crimson blood
Will create hot pools,
And my muscles
Will protect your bodies,
Still slightly pulsing
And oozing with ichor.
I'll chew on my bones
So that they're not
Edgy anymore,
All soft and sugary,
Like treats on Halloween night.
I feel like I have
No guts anymore,
Because they were
In the way
Of me fitting the world
In my body.
Now that I lay on the
Red sand,
Tongue out,
Out of breath,
Blood on the canins,
Torn paws,
Claws shattered,
I feel lighter.
I loved so many and ran away
So many times.
Stray dog has no owners,
Only its tail,
That it will tear out
With a desire of its own.
