Palomontio Ñu
Poor poet Palomontio Ñu
his face looks like an ostrich,
he spends his life explaining
to a dead hare how to dance candomblé.
Poor poet wants to cry.
He spent two days in a dovecote
and fell asleep recording the cooing of doves
and when he woke up he saw he was at the bottom of the sea.
Poor poet.
Poor poet what a disappointment
he suffered when he realized his situation
because as is known at the bottom of the sea
it is difficult, very difficult to breathe.
Poor poet began to die
and in a few minutes he ceased to exist,
and he could never again explain
to his dead hare how to dance candomblé.
Poor poet.
