1020 T Krieg in der Ukraine, 1 Jahr 30 T Krieg in Gaza/Israel/Libanon und: Lennon/Ferlinghetti

Gestern vor 44 Jahren wurde John Lennon ermordet. Ein Gedicht von Lawrence Ferlinghetti:

John Lennon In The Porto Santo Stefano
 

A trattoria in the porto
an astonishingly couple enters
in shorts
He`s got a fantastic torso
long hair and a golden headband
She`s got long flaxen hair
German hippies maybe
Bourgeois back home
Another couple saunters in and joins them
Dark hair and jeans
Comme ils sont beaux
Not one of them is gay
though he`s the most beautiful
He`s got such a smile
Some story he`s telling
What could it be
Something about John Lennon
lost in a mix of Tuscan and German
Comme elle est belle
with her empty eyes
the Germans very spaced out
the Italians very "with it"
But none of them look very happy
Perhaps it`s just youth
I am trying to think of a Lennon line
to sum up the situation
There isn`t any
He didn`t live long enough to give us
the mad eternal answer
