Terence Patrick Winch: Music for Earthlings

.

A young migrant boy tries on shoes donated by the people of Hungary at Keleti station in Budapest, Hungary. After days of confrontation and chaos, Hungary unexpectedly opened its borders with Austria, allowing thousands of migrants to leave the country and travel onto Germany: photo by Christopher Furlong via FT Photo Diary, 7 September 2015

The people who wanted the entomologists to die
wanted the Buddhists to live forever amid the ruins
of the industrial age.The people who wanted
the filmmakers to disappear wanted the trucks
full of dead people to drive all night to that point
where everything converges. The doctors who
brought the dead back to life wanted to spend
their days weeping at the poolside of the luxury
hotel that will be blown up later today. The men
who pour the concrete all day long into the holes
in the street in front of my house are the same
men who died before I was ever born, if I was
ever born. The prehistoric mountain of ice
wants the near-extinct African penguins
to stop saying goodbye. The bus terminal 
wants the hitchhikers to end their journey.
The prayers want to stop providing answers.

¿Solo asi he de irme?
¿Como las flores que perecieron?
¿Nada quedara en mi nombre?
¿Nada de mi paso aqui en la tierra?
¡Al menos flores, al menos cantos!

Was it for this only that I came?
To die away like the flowers?
Nothing left of my name?
Nor of the days I have spent on earth?
At least my flowers, at least my songs!

from Cantos de Huexotzingo: Nahuatl, attributed to Ayocuan Cuetzpaltzin, aka Aguila Blanca de Tecamachalco (The White Eagle of Tecamachalco), early 16th c.: English translation TC
