Translation of Eric Mottram’s Courbet: Elegy 8 by T. Wignesan

résident dans les jours
la surface du banc de travail est noire
les géraniums-lierres
les fougères et les adragans
accumulent leurs oeuvres et jours:
La toile noire de Courbet

On the Face of Clear Nights
I see on a canvas, this face
The distant look, as detached from the world,
Behind me ,trying to decipher shadows
The unstable condition of the wind, and the ignored face of the days ...

Sonnet 09: L'empreinte Du Destin
Devrais-je feindre l'ignorance pour cacher mes sentiments,

Ascension

Sous une brume matinale
je vagabonde les rivages
des souvenirs
à la recherche du passé
dans les lits de rivières desséchées
vestiges de jours écoulés.

La vie nous dirige
vers plusieurs sentiers périlleux
les idées enflammées de souffrance
en attente d’une deuxième renaissance.

Affranchi des...

Do not kill the whole toy.

Regarding these words

I will answer:

 

“Long time ago,

An ardent longing for the finer things ...
Vodka from eggs - bedrooms with wings.

Bugatti's and coffees topped with gold,
Armani, Brioni, and true absinthe, old.

Bottega Veneta or a Lanvin wool coat,
Yachts that are really just mansions...
