Desnos, Robert: A Max Morue

Portre of Desnos, Robert

A Max Morue (French)

Chicago

Les tramways font un bruit de pâte à beignets

quand on la met dans l'huile.

Dans la prairie il y a un cow-boy :

Il crève les étoiles à coups de revolver

pour éterniser la naissance de son fils.

Caché derrière un caroubier il dort

le pirate de la savane oublié dans un roman de Gustave

Aymard.

Dans la prison de Chicago il y a un assassin poitrinaire par trois dames aux mains blanches aux yeux d'émail par un docteur aux lunettes d'écaillé par un clergyman rasé au rasoir star soigné

Courage! ont dit les trois dames aux mains blanches

Courage! avait dit le docteur à lunettes d'écaillé

Demain il pourra se lever

Courage a répété le clergyman rasé au rasoir star

Demain il pourra se lever

et quand il pourra se lever

on l'emmènera se faire électrocuter.

To Max Morise (English)

Chicago

The trams make a noise like doughnut batter

dropped in oil.

In the prairie there's a cowboy:

He bursts the stars with revolver shots to

eternalize the birth of his son.

Hidden behind a carob tree he sleeps

the pirate of the forgotten savanna in a novel by Gustave

Aymard.

In the Chicago prison there's a consumptive assassin three women with white hands with enamel eyes a doctor with tortoise shell glasses a clergyman shaved with a star razor nurse him

Courage! said the three women with white hands

Courage! said the doctor with tortoise shell glasses

Tomorrow he can get up

Courage repeated the clergyman shaved with the star razor

Tomorrow he can get up

and when he can get up

he’ll be taken to get himself electrocuted.
