Queneau, Raymond: Reinforcements [II] (Renfort [2] in English)

Portre of Queneau, Raymond

Renfort [2] (French)

Je suis vieux et je suis lourd

mon âge compte on le soupèse

et l’on me dit que vieux et lourd

j’attendrai que la mort me baise

dans un coin — comme un vieux et comme un lourd

Reinforcements [II] (English)

I am old and I am heavy

my age counts up adds pounds to me

and they tell me that old and heavy

I’ve just to wait for death to screw me

in a corner—like somebody old somebody heavy
