patrio-tic

[Arcadia]

Aires de independencia
aletean en nuestra comida patriótica del día.
(Parece que nuestros hombres fueron inspirados por el invierno
para hacer declaraciones, revoluciones y también para morirse…).
Más allá de posibles tácticas, estrategias, la Historia y la fatalidad
los días para el descanso, el juego, los discursos,
las discusiones interminables y la digestión difícil
siguen siendo bienvenidos cada año.



Independence times
flap their wings
through our patriotic meal of the day.
(It seems our men were inspired by southern winter
for doing declarations & revolutions & also dying).
Beyond possible strategies & tactics & History & glory & fatality
days for resting, playing, speeches,
neverending discussions & hard digestion
keep been welcomed each year.
