The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 1 authors
Setting
0.00 INK
The unfathomable deep
Forest where all must lose
Their way, however straight,
Or winding, soon or late;
They cannot choose.
Setting
0.00 INK
That, since the dawn’s first crack,
Up to the forest brink,
Deceived the travellers,
Suddenly now blurs,
And in they sink.
Setting
0.00 INK
Although most sweet or bitter,
Here ends in sleep that is sweeter
Than tasks most noble.
Setting
0.00 INK
Or face of dearest look
That I would not turn from now
To go into the unknown
I must enter, and leave, alone,
I know not how.
Setting
0.00 INK
Its cloudy foliage lowers
Ahead, shelf above shelf;
Its silence I hear and obey
That I may lose my way
And myself.
Setting
0.00 INK
Charles Baudelaire translated by David Yezzi
Take it easy, Sadness. Settle down.
You asked for evening. Now, it’s come. It’s here.
A choking fog has blanketed the town,
infecting some with calm, the rest with fear.
Setting
0.00 INK
of heartless pleasure swinging its barbed knout
and finds remorse in slavish partying,
take my hand, Sorrow. I will lead you out,
Setting
0.00 INK
in tattered clothes, from heaven’s balconies.
From the depths, regret emerges with a grin.
Setting
0.00 INK
and, shroudlike, stretched from the antipodes,
—hear it, O hear, love!—soft night marches in.
Setting

Sois sage, ô ma Douleur, et tiens-toi plus tranquille.
Tu réclamais le Soir; il descend; le voici:
Une atmosphère obscure enveloppe la ville,
Aux uns portant la paix, aux autres le souci.
Setting
0.00 INK
Sous le fouet du Plaisir, ce bourreau sans merci,
Va cueillir des remords dans la fête servile,
Ma Douleur, donne-moi la main; viens par ici,
Setting
0.00 INK
Sur les balcons du ciel, en robes surannées;
Surgir du fond des eaux le Regret souriant;
