...En la redonda 
encrucijada,
seis doncellas
bailan.
Tres de carne
y tres de plata.
Los sue?os de ayer las buscan
pero las tiene abrazadas
un Polifemo de oro.

...THE LADY in red, she in the chile con carne red,
Brilliant as the shine of a pepper crimson in the summer sun,
She behind a false-face, the much sought-after dancer, the most sought-after dancer of all in this masquerade,
The lady in red sox and red hat, ankles of willow, crimson arrow amidst the Spanish clashes of music,

 I sit in a corner
 watching her dance first with one man
 and then anoth...Read more of this...

...of peace and slumbrous calm are fled;
Those days, all innocent of scathing war,
When all the fair Existences of heaven
Carne open-eyed to guess what we would speak:---
That was before our brows were taught to frown,
Before our lips knew else but solemn sounds;
That was before we knew the winged thing,
Victory, might be lost, or might be won.
And be ye mindful that Hyperion,
Our brightest brother, still is undisgraced---
Hyperion, lo! his radiance is here!"

 Andovvi poi lo Vas d'elezione,

 Ma io perch? venirvi? o chi 'l concede?

Io non Enea, io non Paulo sono:

 Per che, se del venire io m'abbandono,

temo che la venuta non sia folle.

...th in the dark of years,
That when it woke and came to life again
The flower was different from the parent seed.
It carne back vaguely at the glass one day,
As she stood saying her name over aloud,
Striking it gently across her lowered eyes
To make it go well with the way she looked.
What was it about her name? Its strangeness lay
In having too much meaning. Other names,
As Lesley, Carol, Irma, Marjorie,
Signified nothing. Rose could have a meaning,
But hadn't...Read more of this...

...Noche de cuatro lunas
y un solo ?rbol,
con una sola sombra
y un solo p?jaro. 

Busco en mi carne las
huellas de tus labios.
El manantial besa al viento
sin tocarlo. 

Llevo el No que me diste,
en la palma de la mano,
como un lim?n de cera
casi blanco.

En la punta de una aguja,

...?

Who picked a crimson cryptogram,
the tail light of a motor car turning a corner,
or the midnight sign of a chile con carne place,
or a man out of the ashes of false dawn muttering “hot-dog” to the night watchmen:
Is there a spieler who has spoken the word or taken the number of night’s nothings? am I the spieler? or you?

Is there a tired head
the night has not fed and rested
and kept on its neck and shoulders?

Is there a wish
of man to woman
and woman to man
the night ha...Read more of this...

Paradiso: Canto VIII

 Solea creder lo mondo in suo periclo
che la bella Ciprigna il folle amore
raggiasse, volta nel terzo epiciclo;
 per che non pur a lei faceano onore
di sacrificio e di votivo grido
le genti antiche ne l'antico errore;
 ma Dione onoravano e Cupido,
quella per madre sua, que...Read more of this...

You Men (English)

    Silly, you men-so very adept
at wrongly faulting womankind,
not seeing you're alone to blame
for faults you plant in woman's mind.

    After you've won by urgent plea
the right to tarnish her good name,
you still expect her to behave--
you, that coaxed her into shame.

 E 'l mio maestro: «Voi potete andarne
e ritrarre a color che vi mandaro
che 'l corpo di costui è vera carne.
 Se per veder la sua ombra restaro,
com'io avviso, assai è lor risposto:
fàccianli onore, ed essere può lor caro».
 Vapori accesi non vid'io sì tosto
di prima notte mai fender sereno,
né, sol calando, nuvole d'agosto,
 che color non tornasser suso in meno;
e, giunti là, con li altri a noi dier volta
come schiera che scorre sanza freno.

El barco sobre la mar
y el caballo en la monta?a.
Con la sombra en la cintura
ella sue?a en sus baranda,
verde carne, pelo verde,
con ojos de fr?a plata.
Verde que te quiero verde.
Bajo la luna gitana,
las cosas la est?n mirando
y ella no puede mirarlas.

 Verde que te quiero verde.
Grandes estrellas de escarcha,
vienen con el pez de sombra
que abre el camino del alba.
La higuera frota su viento
con la lija de sus ramas,
y el monte, gato gardu?o,

Determined with shot and shell the enemy to harass;
Then carne the shock of the rebels against the British square,
While the fiendish shouts of the Arabs did rend the air. 

But the steadiness of the Guards, Marines, and Infantry prevailed,
And for the loss of their brother officers they sadly bewailed,
Who fell mortally wounded in the bloody fray,
'Which they will remember for many a long day.
