From The Golden Treasury of Myths and Legends (1959) by Alice and Martin Provensen

You’re darker these days, I thought you were sun

Stars in your eyes, when your shirt is undone

Your skin is full moon, a reflection of light

That sleeps in the daytime, stays up most of the night

A blackhole my dear, a beautiful empty

You’re sucking me dry and spitting out memories

It feels like we’re fading, you’re miles away

Are you still there, love? Do you have nothing to say?

—Katherine Priddy, “Eurydice”

My Spanish tutor, Roberto Poblete, and I have spent the last six weeks translating Tennyson’s Ulysses into Spanish. It was great fun, puzzling through every word, trying to find the exact meaning. I love this poem so much and will be hard pressed to choose the next one to work on. Suggestions welcome. Art by my friend Alice Provensen and her husband Martin.
