L’essenza dell’ideale (Ita – Fr – Eng – Esp)

L’essenza dell’ideale

Ancora una volta guardo l’Uomo e vedo
un ammasso enorme che brulica
di una poltiglia d’individui d’ogni sesso
e di ogni categoria
numerosi quasi l’intera umanità.
Giudici, operai, commercianti,
ragionieri, dirigenti, politici, poeti, preti
dotati di cervello, lo pongono in silenzio ai piedi
dei costruttori di consenso, dei fini manipolatori,
degl’ingegneri del sociale. Con in mano desideri
astratti di libertà e di pace, avanzano,
invocano giustizia e guerra. I costruttori
sorridono perfidamente in loro nome,
difendono la libertà e la pace
si dicono rappresentanti dell’intera umanità,
fanno di questi poveri strumenti i loro tirapiedi.
Restano invisibili, quasi
come mignoli dell’enorme ammasso,
i poveri, i perseguitati, i solitari
che alzano la voce e il dito, inascoltati
come bambini capricciosi, adolescenti senza ideali,
ragazzi da correggere e punire, vecchi
a cui chiudere occhi e bocca.
Questa poltiglia mi costringe a credere
il vuoto come nocciolo d’ogni ideale.

reformed

Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

A poem in Vietnamese by Lê Vĩnh Tài

Translator: Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm


reformed

mixing rice and salt to reform a sweet block of chocolate

like a dictator reformed in the form of a king

.

as liberation was in love reformed

as the consumption of barley hunger was reformed

.

as carpet bombing reformed the summer

as people were reformed by agent orange

.

as the angels were reformed in re-education camps

left as mortals

.

as white chalk was reformed by darkness

ensuing three generations of mediocre academics

the associates ruled(the world)

.

as the atmosphere was reformed by the destruction of the jungle

followed by the crocodile tears

and competing despair

.

as plagiarism reformed honesty

in silence accepted the awards

followed by how life’s so unfair

the jealousy and hatred

.

as the earth was reformed by the garden of…

मुझे नहीं पता
कि क्या लिखा है
मेरी किस्मत में,
लेकिन मेरे हाथ
पुष्टि करते हैं
कि वहां एक शब्द
जरूर लिखा होगा,
“कोशिश…”

I don’t know
what has been written
in my destiny,
but my hands confirm
that one word there
must have been written,
“Effort…”

How Folks In Pacoima Are Fighting The Heat — With Asphalt Paint | LAist

Half a dozen people are painting asphalt at a park using long paint rollers. Earlier this year, Pacoima Beautiful painted 10 square blocks and a few murals with a special coat that mitigates the hotness of the asphalt, reflects solar waves and beautifies the area. The painted asphalt doesn’t trap as much heat as non-painted surfaces. Source: How Folks In Pacoima Are Fighting The Heat — With Asphalt Paint | LAist

The New Humanitarian | What Sri Lanka’s economic crisis looks like for women

With inflation soaring above 64 percent, Sri Lankans have been reeling for months from an economic crisis that is jeopardising their health, education, and basic living standards, driving many into hunger and poverty.

The skyrocketing costs of living have impacted everyone, but some marginalised communities and groups are particularly hard hit; among them women who face the double burden of trying to earn an income while also performing unpaid care work at home, for children or elderly relatives.

Sri Lanka’s sudden collapse stemmed from myriad factors, including: years of economic mismanagement; the pandemic’s double blow to tourism and remittances; and decades of forced reliance on foreign loans.
