I dance between the Old Dreams

I dance between the Old Dreams
I pray with my breath in cold;

I try to make my mind a Sanctuary
Each thought and Idea - a rosary.

Ancient Wisdom, Rather Cosmic /Ezra Pound/ So-shu dreamed,/ And having dreamed that he was a bird, a bee, and a butterfly,/ He was uncertain why he should try to feel like anything else,/ Hence his contentment.

Znam ten wiersz, gdzieś sobie odhaczyłem na dysku. A powyższe napisałem sobie moją wersję Francesci Pounda. Takie tam, wbrew pozorom sporo jest dzisiaj dobrej sztuki, tylko to nie czasy kiedy artysta kształtuje gusta, tylko gusta kształtuje rynek.

okay. Mam teraz w zakladkach "Francesca" w jez. ang. i m.in. "Pound’s evocation of Francesca is in fact a love poem. He recalls Dante’s heroine, Francesca da Rimini who was condemned to the second Circle of Hell for having fallen in love with Paolo while reading a book about Lancelot falling in love (Inferno V: 127-38). While she emerges out of the night, a symbol of the many centuries which have elapsed since her death, with flowers in her hands, the poet is jealous of the other people who dare speak about her casually and thus, defile her. He is angry when in their “turmoil of speech” they mention her name and drag her into “ordinary places,” thus marring her intangible nature and not realizing her miraculous nature nor the portentous nature of her sudden apparition, which only a lover pained by his beloved’s absence can rightly appreciate. The poet resents the “confusion of people” who treat the extraordinary as if it were a banal encounter, and yearns for an intimate encounter with her. He is jealous of everybody who approaches her even in speech and wishes the world to be swept away “like a dandelion seed-pod” so that he can have her only for and to himself in a solitary and loving encounter in the “cool waves” of his imagination. There he might find her again, but “alone” The motif of the journey to the dead is central to Pound’s oeuvre and to his particular method of “making it new.”

(Zasadniczo Pound jak i cały ruch modernistyczny ostro przesadzał z elitaryzmem, ok, do zobaczenia do jutra : )
