*WHEN COLOR RETURNS*

This week, six new translations from the
DUTCH [with intro, recordings & poster]:

Adieu

At least dream then that we never separated,
We dreamed it so often, child, next to each other.
Now I have kissed, as you slept, for the last time
the silken fragrant abundance of your wild hair.

I took my fiddle, let myself slip out the window,
Trod through the orchard, looking back repeatedly
At the window, open amidst the ivy, where
You with your smile dreamed that we never /
separated.

Dream then, as in a fairy tale, for a hundred years:
Dream that you wandered with me and with me
Played and dances accompanied at the taverns—

Adieu. Perhaps there a sorcerer shall
Make a blonde prince of this old fiddler, whose
Kiss awakens you, and we were never separated.

Martinus Nijhoff (1894-1953) (tr. Cliff Crego)

unenDangered

spEcies of

deadly substances laCe

wOmb of earth,

conNecting

wiTh nothing other than more of themselves,

lAunching

Multiple waves of

indetermInate effects,

resoNating

in wAys so appallingly contorted in their

insoluble complicaTedness,

that I, as

one amOng countless millions of other members of creatura

wish we would have Not produced in the first place,

&,

given the fact that i myself, too, Do need, as you, perhaps, too,

and many others, also, do need morE than a modicum

of purifiCation and cleansing,

why on earth does the wOrld not put its foot down and simply insist that

we stop thinking up ever-more new deadly Materials

which I'm sure, too, nobody

really wants or needS,

at leaSt

until It (science)

effectively has the Old profound mistakes of the past

thoroughly Neutralized, and, well: the urgency

of all thIs should by now be obvious -- it is after all rather boring -- in that

the world which seeks security in N-weapons -- (¿contradiction?) -- might soon

need more than than just more Decontamination & DecommissioninG.
