this photo by Armando Taborda

I have irrefutable poems
proving
God's schizophrenia

we are unreal
delirious
agonizing apes
crawling into darkness

death is a portentous catapult
with a tremendous metaphysical power:
throw us beyond of nowhere

sometimes
inside myself
the star that I beheaded
talks to me

///

tenho poemas irrefutáveis
comprovando
a esquizofrenia de Deus

somos símios
rastejando na escuridão
irreais, delirantes
agónicos

a morte é uma catapulta portentosa
com um poder de alcance metafísico tremendo:
lança-nos para lá do nada

fala comigo
por vezes
o astro que decapitei
dentro de mim

Está na altura de o conheceres. Eu também só o descobri ontem e, para mim, o seu poema foi amor à primeira vista. De facto penso que a tradução honra o texto original. Podes conhecê-lo um pouco melhor se navegares na página do Dinis, no FB.

Kein Mensch hat Gott je gesehen -
wir machen uns nur immer wieder neue Bilder von Gott -
weil die alten Bilder nicht mehr stimmen -

Leider ist die Übersetzung nicht gut -

I like the final stanza: many similar things were said to me by the schizophrenic patients I looked after. It truly reflects the torment of hearing voices.
