Poetic T Jul 2017
Beneath the white snow of her
flowing gown,
                 a beauty is motionless.

Waiting for her moment as wilted
rose petals fall motionless,
               crimson tainting her purity.

The words still lingering, buried within
never to be exhumed from her thoughts.

This bride forever waiting , still holding
on to the rose, she is wilted like it,
but her beauty is motionless as others cry.

I Homers Odyssé skrives en tragedie
som en komedie
i sorg søger vi jo glæde
jeg ønsker ikke at fremvise ængstelige optrædener
at gemme mine sorger bag lyksalige ord for evigt
sceneskrækken holder mig ude af rampelyset
og angsten holder mig ude af mig selv
andres polerede selvsikre personligheder
filer min til roden
komiker bliver jeg nok aldrig
men måske en glemt tragedie

Translation:

Comedy vs tragedy
In Homer's Odyssey a tragedy is written
as a comedy
in sorrow, we seek the joy
I do not want to show anxious performances
or to hide my sorrows behind blissful words forever
stage fright keeps me out of the limelight
and anxiety keeps me out of myself
others polished self-confident personalities
files mine to the root
comedian, I'll probably never be
but perhaps a forgotten tragedy
