PAX LUSITANICA

 

Ora se bem me lembro bem bastava

ter que me dar a gregos e troianos.

Mas dar-me a americanos, russos

e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam

os portugueses! Esses facínoras de pé na mão, esses

minhocas endomingados na semana

e tesos ao domingo.

Gregos de Ulisses, vale é uma chama

acesa no altar da pátria.

Troianos . . . há Eneias, piedoso,

acartando nas costas o seu povo.

De Portugal, não se fala, nem do Gama.

Mas dar-me a americanos, russos

e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam

os portugueses!

 

Quero ver-me é entre tahitianas,

Titiro manhoso, vendedor de flautas

e com elas convívio amenizado.

Quero é dar-me a Circe, enfeitiçar-me

em cavernas simbólicas

onde não faltem os sobresselentes,

o simulacro, o ver de cão travado

pelo cheiro a carne quente.

Penélope esperou-me tanto tempo

que pode esperar mais, como Lisboa.

Mas dar-me a americanos, russos

e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem me bastam

os portugueses!

 

Acertadas as contas, quero ver

se não me engano.

Contra Ulisses, eu quero ser troiano.

Quero ter

viagem paga, um fim que dignifique,

uma toga, um palácio . . . tudo o que

justifique

minha precária existência

marcada pela traição, pelo pavor

piloto morto, pelo sonhador, pelo incêndio, pela lágrima

de aligator . . .

Verdade, que há um cheiro lusitano . . .

Sou romano.

Aquilo que prometo nunca faço.

Mas dar-me a americanos, russos

e chineses, arre! isso não, que bem

me bastam os portugueses!

PAX LUSITANICA

 

Well, if I remember right it was bad enough

having to give myself to Greeks and Trojans.

But to give myself to Americans, Russians,

and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese

are bad enough! Those

strutting thugs, those

tiny worms in Sunday-best all week

and then flat-broke on Sundays.

Odysseus’ Greeks, well, fine, O.K., a flame

burning on the homeland's altar.

Trojans . . . there’s Aeneas, pious guy,

lugging all his people on his back.

Of Portugal, nothing’s said, not even the name Da Gama.

But to give myself to Americans, Russians,

and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese

are bad enough!

 

I’d like to see myself among Tahitian girls,

Cunning Titiro, a seller of flutes,

living with them in soothed familiarity.

I’d like to give myself to Circe, get bewitched

in symbolic caverns

suffering no dearth of provender,

with a simulacrum, the vision of a dog fettered

by smell to the warm flesh.

Penelope has waited so long for me

she can, like Lisbon, wait a little longer.

But to give myself to Americans, Russians,

and Chinese, arghh! not that, the Portuguese

are bad enough!

 

My affairs in order, I’d like to see

if I’ve got it right.

Against Odysseus, I’d like to be a Trojan.

I’d like to have

my trip for free, an end that dignifies,

a toga, a palace . . . all that might

justify

my precarious existence

marked by treason, dread,

the pilot dead, by the dreamer, fire, an alligator

tear . . .

True, there is a Lusitanian smell . . .

I am a Roman.

What I promise, I never do.

But to give myself to Americans, Russians,

and Chinese, arghh!, not that, the Portuguese

are bad enough!

One of (charmingly) many kilt-clad enforcers guards a door during the PAX Friday night concert.

I finally got her some lime Brainworm chips and switched out the icky olive ones. These suit her so much better!

 

Now...do I get her lips repainted or not? That's the only thing that I'm still iffy about with her. Otherwise I think she is perfect.

Miraflores, Lima

 

Built in 1936 in Kalundborg, Denmark, PAX is a 28 ft spidsgatter with a 51 ft mast . She is a double-ender that her owner desribes as “vuluptous and all about curves”. That includes a gorgeous rudder that follows the canoe-like stern. The spidsgatter was a racing class begun in the mid-1920s as sail clubs across Denmark sought to expand opportunities for families to sail together. The boats were fast, ocean-worthy (modeled after North Sea fish boat designs), had lots of volume below (beamy) and were relatively inexpensive to build .The sail number S45 denotes her original racing rating for the class carrying 45 square meters of sail. For more details: kacicronkhite.com/spidsgatter-pax-port-townsend/ Kaci Cronkhite's book, Finding PAX, is very well written. I found it a moving tale of the many folks the loved and cared for this beautiful saiboat.

cementerio de la Recoleta.-

Tourists take photographs in the square when it is crossed by a birth. Piazza San Pietro is a large plaza located directly in front of St. Peter's Basilicain the Vatican City, the papal enclave inside Rome. Both the square and the basilica are named after Saint Peter, an apostle of Jesus and the first Catholic Pope.

At the centre of the square is an ancient Egyptian obelisk, erected at the current site in 1586. Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the square almost 100 years later, including the massive Tuscan colonnades, four columns deep, which embrace visitors in "the maternal arms of Mother Church". A granite fountain constructed by Bernini in 1675 matches another fountain designed by Carlo Maderno in 1613.

 

If you're headed to PAX Melbourne tomorrow, I will be one of the guests, and making an appearance at the Bethesda booth 12-2pm.

 

It's no secret I'm a big videogame geek, and Doom is a big fave in this house. So the chance to get early access to 'Rip and tear until it is done'? Yeah. I'm excited.

 

And there's some other stuff too, including a themed restaurants, cool art, some special giveaways, all the cosplayers, and of course the photo ops.

 

Anyway, head down to the Bethesda booth, check it out, and hope to see y'all there.

 

It's going to be AWESOME!

Week 51/52, 2016

 

This week’s theme for my 52 project is “PAX.” I wanted to look for a peaceful setting for my photo. A snow-covered cemetery would have been perfect, but it’s hard for me to visit cemeteries right now. This is a small park close to home. I liked the snow on the benches and the warm sunlight shining on the townhouses in the background.

Random picture of Pax.

We got our first HOP dress today! This fishy fabric is just too wonderful. Thanks, Julie!

Cada um que ver esta imagem deixe uma mensagem de paz as nações...E repasse aos seus contatos...

Each one that to see this image leaves a peace message the nations… and to repass to its contacts…

 

Paz é geralmente definida como um estado de calma ou tranquilidade, uma ausência de perturbações ou agitação. Derivada do latim Pacem = Pax, Absentia Belli, pode referir-se à ausência de violência ou guerra. Neste sentido, a paz entre nações, e dentro delas, é o objetivo assumido de muitas organizações, designadamente a ONU.

 

No plano pessoal, paz designa um estado de espírito isento de ira, desconfiança e de um modo geral todos os sentimentos negativos. Assim, ela é desejada por cada pessoa para si próprio e, eventualmente, para os outros, ao ponto de se ter tornado uma frequente saudação (que a paz esteja contigo) e um objetivo de vida.

FYI: .... "Pax" means peace. and was the Roman goddess of Peace.

 

Chambers Bay Golf Course as taken from the Grandview Trail not far from the North Meadow, in University Place, Washington. This is looking toward McNeil Island, where you can see the dock at the island's tip (left side). Also, in the center of this shot is the only tree on the course, and after having been viciously attcked last month, will recover!

 

Lone Fir is fast becoming the most identifiable feature of Chambers Bay Golf Course.

One sees these all over the northern portion of South Korea--long-abandoned machine-gun placements. I have enjoyed walking off the paths and exploring the woods in both Gyeonggi and Gangwon provinces and I see these a lot. Then, one day (duuuu!) it dawned on me that this piece of real estate had been fought over ferociously for five years and----didn't they use mines back then?... of course they used mines!

 

This thought came to me one day deep in the woods. Nice. Now I started wondering about just how thoroughly the South Koreans went through the 38,000 square miles that make up their country ensuring that there were no hidden mines anywhere at all. This, in a country that boasts 29,444 square miles of forests.

 

From what I could find out from old-timers the place was heavily mined and the government did a hell of a good job getting rid of them. Still...

 

I mean how can you really be sure and who wants to find out the hard way? It is not too hard to imagine Army crews pretty much covering every single path in the entire nation--and even that would be a real task. But did they actually go off-trail and climb up hills with their mine detecting gear checking every square inch of hills, ravines, canyons, streams, etc? Of course they didn't!

 

Yet, despite what I personally believe (that there are innumerable undiscovered mines still buried all over South Korea) in my ten years here I have never once heard of anyone being killed or injured by one. One thing that I have noticed in all my hiking: Koreans stay on the paths. I'm sure not ALL of them do because there are a lot of ginseng hunters and they do go off-path. But they are the only ones I have seen doing so. Anyway, I am a "when your number's up it's up" guy and so I haven't given up leaving the trails when it suits me.

Asahi Pentax K1000SE with SMC Pentax-A 35-105mm f3.5 Macro-zoom on Fuji 200.

The Pax 35 was made by the Yamoto company of Japan. It is a VERY compact fixed-lens 35mm rangefinder. Slowish f/3.5 lens. No doubt the scarcity of raw materials so soon after the war led to thriftiness in design. The camera is strongly based on Leica construction but small enough to fit comfortably onto a child's open palm. An online purchase, this example is non-operative in several ways (not mentioned in the listing) but still quite an interesting little camera to look at and hold.
