(*Note: I just wanted to say that this poem is supposed to be funny and completely void of images and metaphors. Wink)

I have suffered too many
debacles. My debility is
that I'm decrepit and
practically defunct. I gave
you éclat and caused your
work to be a cynosure.
But now, I must exculpate
myself from this imbroglio.

You jejune imp- you had
the effrontery to not be absolutely
debonair to my true effulgence.
You emetically jilted my
jocund disposition. But now,
I know about your new
inamorata, your paramour. I’m
not irascible, but the fact that
you effaced yourself in this
relationship is now morose.

So, my evil persona non grata,
keep out of my pages for eternity!

I'd be like everyone and say the usual "great job" or " I love it"...

But come on now, let's be honest people.

You can't understand one word in that poem.

i substituted the words I didnt know with crust....

I have suffered too many
crust. My debility is
that I'm crustt and
practically crust. I gave
you crust and caused your
work to be a crust.
But now, I must exculpate
myself from this crust.

You crust crust- you had
the effrontery to not be absolutely
crust to my true crust.
You crust jilted my my
jocund disposition. But now,
I know about your new
crust, your crust. I’m
not crust, but the fact that
you effaced yourself in this
relationship is now morose.

So, my evil persona non grata,
keep out of my pages for eternity!






The sad thing is, alot of poets on GSB way over use the theosauras and see nothing wrong with it. This was totally mocking them. Jason would be proud of your dished ownage.

I know that was the point of the poem.

The point of my comment was that people say "great poem" when they
haven't even read the poem....
I'm not talking about this one in particular though...

so this is what i got from it.

i have suffered too many
catostraphes my weakness is
that im worn out and
practically dead. i gave
you glory and caused your
work to be famous.
but now, i must release
myself from this misunderstanding.

you naive rascal-you had
the nerve to not be absolutely
charming to my true beauty.
you purposely deserted my
happy nature. but now,
i know about your new
affection, your lover. im
not angry, but the fact that
you erased yourself in this
relationship is now sad.

so, my evil unwelcomed person
keep out of my pages for all eternity!

whew! that took a while. ok, author, i am truly sorry if it was supposed to keep people guessing. but after reading it translated, i think it`s beautiful. i know it`s supposed to be funny, but being the analytical weirdo i am, this is what i see it as.
this person is in a relationship or something and one person has brought the other everything the other person needed. ''glory'' is a metaphor for like happiness or something. but then, the person who recieved everything, threw it away and found someone else. the other person isnt mad but is just sad that the relationship between them is gone. so the person who got dumped or whatever is saying ''fuck off and stay away from me forever.'' you might have a different view, or just put random words together, but it`s what i see. yeah, i`m weird. but i like it. seriously. and looking up the words was kinda fun, actually. yeah, too much time on my hands.

Well, all poetry is up for interpretation, and I honestly love your translation of it.

That's not how I was actually writing it, but that's the wonderful thing about poetry- it can be whatever you really want to make it out to be. I'm not going to say what it's actually about, though... Mainly because I like seeing the different versions of what everyone has come up with.

But thanks to everyone who read it, liked it, substituted words, and/or subtracted words. Smile
