New Tattoo and New set in MR

171

Enjoy this awesome view of my new tattoo, not yet present on my new set since it only has 3 weeks. I'm so happy with the result!

It's a poem by Fernando Pessoa a portuguese poet of the 20th century and it says something like this (sorry for the poor translation):

The poet is a faker.
Fakes so completely
That he ends up faking
The pain he really feels.
And those who read what he writes,
The pain read its really felt,
Not the two he had,
But the one which they have not.
And so on the rail of wheels
Turns to entertain the reason,
This train of rope
Called heart.
- translated by Caia
I also found the translation below:

translated by Michael Hamburger

Autopsychography

Poets feign and conceal
So completely feign and pretend
That the pain which they really feel
They'll feign for you in the end

And he who reads what they've done
Never senses the twofold pain
That's in them, only the one
Which they never feel but feign

And so, to amuse our minds
Round again to the start
On its circular railway winds
That toy train called the heart.

Fernando Pessoa

And now please do not forget to leave some love, if you haven't yet, on my new set in MR by @Jupiter - To the Wonder
