Babelfishing Poetry: "The Dead Dog City Is Dead"
Hello! Are you looking forward to the holiday weekend? Me too. I enjoy these quiet wintry days by curling up with a nice book, a soft blanket and some cocoa. But I will pop out of my cozy little blanket fort long enough to post more Babelfishing poetry, where I take song lyrics, run them through an on-line translator such as (but not necessarily) Babelfish, adjust the punctuation a bit, and wind up with a quirky kind of poem.
The solstice just passed, so here is the seasonal song "The Halsway Carol" (listen to English folk singer and fiddler Jackie Oates sing the song here, ot listen to this instrumental arrangement for accordion and hurdy-gurdy performed live by Duo Fernandez & Quintá here). Enjoy.
The Dead Dog City Is Dead
The buffalo dog is in the buffalo dog,
and your hell is in your heart.
Suddenly hear one pounding voice
in my heart.
The CCP is crying in my arms.
You see it in the Core Valley.
It can't be a dangerous ocean
in my heart.
The buffalo dog is in the water buffalo dog.
The cook is a tribble for revelers.
Oh dear,
I am in my heart.
It is said,
oh, now slowly, but these days
the dead dog city is dead
in my heart.
It is going to be a sleeping day.
The faculty team is made
more than enough to stay out of the abandonment.
Tell your day today, this morning;
tell your day today.
