On The Sea Poem by Paolo Giuseppe Mazzarello

On The Sea

Rating: 5.0


- One tells that, since their birth, the eagles have been getting used to stare at the sun -
In the Divine Commedy

Here the sea wishes to take down the rocks,
One believes that mankind built a town on those rocks on purpose,
One understands why the poet Montale felt this one so dangerous.
In 'Pale Rider' Josey Whales is a false preacher,
He wants to kill Stockburn the marshall and his seven assistants,
To throw the dynamite on a band of villains,
To have a sex affair with a rude and tired middle-aged woman.
He refuses the love of the young, beautiful daughter of that woman.
'Why is such a man alive? ' said Dimitrij Karamazov.
Don't resuscitate a fool father:
Mitja, you can have Gruscenka the same even without the inheritance of a little wood.
Josey, don't take an interest in a caricature of a mother,
You can't go away without your young girl-friend:
Whales, I want that you get engaged with her.
Preacher, remember your favourite Apocalypse:
'Those who washed their clothes
Making them white as snow through the Lamb's blood'.
The true girl from Ipanema has the black skin and isn't only tanned,
Has the little plaits, her bathing costume hangs well on the groin.
