Vera Janacopoulos

cantilene



Ambrosia, wat vloeit mij aan?
uw schedelveld is koeler maan
en alle appels blozen

de klankgazelle die ik vond
hoe zoete zoele kindermond
van zeeschuim en van rozen

o muze in het morgenlicht
o minnares en slank gedicht
er is een god verscholen

violen vlagen op het mos
elysium, de vlinders los
en duizendjarig dolen


In english, difficult to choose again, ok, I choose Beowolf.

Same question

I think that it would be... Ted Hughes' Thrushes. It narrowly beats out a poem by Iain Crichton Smith that I can't remember the name of (I think it's called Lewis).

Terrifying are the attent sleek thrushes on the lawn,
More coiled steel than living - a poised
Dark deadly eye, those delicate legs
Triggered to stirrings beyond sense - with a start, a bounce,
a stab
Overtake the instant and drag out some writhing thing.
No indolent procrastinations and no yawning states,
No sighs or head-scratchings. Nothing but bounce and stab
And a ravening second.

Is it their single-mind-sized skulls, or a trained
Body, or genius, or a nestful of brats
Gives their days this bullet and automatic
Purpose? Mozart's brain had it, and the shark's mouth
That hungers down the blood-smell even to a leak of its own
Side and devouring of itself: efficiency which
Strikes too streamlined for any doubt to pluck at it
Or obstruction deflect.

With a man it is otherwise. Heroisms on horseback,
Outstripping his desk-diary at a broad desk,
Carving at a tiny ivory ornament
For years: his act worships itself - while for him,
Though he bends to be blent in the prayer, how loud and
above what
Furious spaces of fire do the distracting devils
Orgy and hosannah, under what wilderness
Of black silent waters weep.

Do you cross the road at traffic lights when it is not your turn (I mean, when it is a green light for cars)?

back when I could walk I always did this. when it was a green for cars traveling WITH me in the direction I was going i would go ahead.

have you ever driven a powerchair?

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know.

Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

CLASSIC AUTISM

bump


""have you ever driven a powerchair?""

No.

Have you ever driven a cherry-picker?

No, I haven't. Had to look up what it was. Um, little compensation.... I can drive a forklift and did so for about a year. Do I get some points for that? Bugger, guess not.

Ever rode a motorbike? (Or a scooter, moped or another engined vehicle with two wheels?)

No.

(& you do get points for driving a forklift - forklifts rock)

Do you know how to weld/ would you like to know how to weld?

No and no.

Would you like to go to university?

I've thought about it, but I am starting to feel like I'm too late. Now I wish I would've done it when I was younger.




Do you feel like you chose the right career?

dont have one yet


so bump!

How do I answer that? *Bumps back*

Bump? (~I thought, that's a gay thing to say but now I know, it's somewhat different from.... 'bum') (silly I)

~

Is there something you've dreamed of doing for a long time?

i wish i was good at parkour, pity about my previous state of health, at least things are getting better, so you never know...

of these 3 who is the least torrible? steven segal, jc van damme or sly stallone.

(Um, I think you left out butter brain Chucky Norris). But of those three, I'd say Jean Claude van Damme is the least terrible.

It's almost over but what was the high point of the month March for you?

I guess a benefit dinner
Yours?

that the publisher wrote my children's poem book with my illustrations will be published

what do you expect to happen next month?
