Nicklas Bäckström + Alexander Ovechkin ― Ho sceso, dandoti il braccio, almeno un milione di scale, Eugenio Montale (trans. William Arrowsmith)
#whatever happens tonight happens. but let me mourn my first ever hockey season#and the player that got me falling into the sport that i got to see play a total of two times. thank you nicke#thank you caps for having stockholm syndrome'd me into following the rest of the season anyway too#by virtue of being weirdhorny ig#what a ride guys! theres a drabble that i would've liked to post instead of this but. alas life works against me in every way#and i've got to prep exams. so im mourning both my life situation and the caps'#by fucking w THE mourning poem#that i've been obsessed w since i read it the first time for my hs literature program.#if by virtue of anything this got you interested in reading more of montale's translated works#this i picked from the 1998 translation of the collection satura by william arrowsmith published by ww norton#bit old but it's the only translation i found that didn't make me completely tick haha. if you're not interested in this poem in particular#there's a lot more translations and collections you can look into#rant over lmao#nicklas backstrom#nicklas bäckström#alexander ovechkin#alex ovechkin#washington capitals#nickeovi#819#hockey rpf#hockey poetry
