In praise of poetry (Martin Newell). Fragmento.

Poetry is no less than this:
An unexpected workplace kiss
The brandy in the spirit cage
A salve upon our wounded age
That lustful swell, the secret damp
The yellow of the attic lamp
The drifting, smoky, hazel haze
Of wooded hills on autumn days
Between the thoughts of summer lost
And anvil of the winter frost

Alabanza de la poesía (fragmento)

La poesía es nada más y nada menos:
Un beso inesperado en el trabajo
El brandy en la barrica de roble
Una salve en nuestra época jodida
Esa lujuria, ese secreto
El amarillo de la luz en lo alto
La niebla de avellana que se mueve
En las colinas con bosques en otoño
Entre pensamientos del verano perdido
Y el miedo a los fríos del invierno

    Es un gusto tenerte de vuelta, tras un ayuno inesperado.
    La poesía es eso...
    Espero con gusto tu exposición del viernes.

    Who's tes?
    A glitch. A Nestorian. A Spaniard whose motto goes : We'd be rats..in a cage... suicide...or Go-Go.
    All right, but who's Tes?
    Chiken scratches on an overprized, heavy piece of paper
    Got you, but who's Tes?
    The one whose surname means "corsets"
    I'm good with that, who's Tes, though?
    He'd be the bloke who lest Caesar-Augusta for Hydropolis some years ago
    I believe I see your point, who's Tes, again?
    A childish sense of humor confined to a decaying manly body
    Oh, Lord! What about Tes? Who's Tes?
    The scrubby, absent minded guy brroding over his handy dandy notebook , next the the long-legged lady.
    Yup, so... who's Tes?
    I'm sure you've seen him chilling out in black shirt flipping through the pages of The New Yorker in a downtown newsstand.
    I see.. just one more: Who's Tes?
    Sure! He's the pal who has his no-filter butts when pay - day is still way ahead. Got it?
    Now you're talking!!! I appreciate it. Thanks, buddy. Hey.. just before you take off, I've heard of that guy... what's his name" Tes!!! Yeah... can you tell me who's Tes?
