PORNO

 

There is filth and filth.

There is filth that water can wash away

There is filth that fire can scarcely touch

Poisonous filth of a text

On a pristine page:

Slime and rotten puss

On a pure white sheet.

On virgin paper now ruined.

Bearing symbols of Shame, of sin.

Shamelessness and deadly poison

The worst vice... And it will die happy

The white page which was violated

In the flame of the Bonfire.

Nothing will remain of it but a spot of ashes

Testimony of the drama.

 

11/11/79.

Translated by Lenora Timm
 

"O welat he falc'h (1968). "" Ul labour gwaz eo. Ret eo din en ober peogwir on ma-unan. """
