Ode, to the Mighty Midget Omac [In English and Spanish]

Tropical Christmas
I can recall from my days in England, watching television at Christmas and seeing how others .....
Part One
Midget History

I am thirty-six inches tall, that is all

Honest to god I am
My hair is green, my eyes red, and I

Have a very thick neck

My eyebrows are thin, and my beard

Has three hairs
And I bore abuse, when I was young

Yes! It happened to be; day by day

folks laugh at me, my appearance

You seeI make them appalled.
.

I am middle aged, not very old, nor am

I: pious, poor, or a fool;
My wrinkles and blemishes are as they

AreId not change them

for food or gold .

I came from a race, from within the earth

More ancient than man himself;
So what do I do, I leave it to you

Just call me Omac, the Mighty Midget.

.

Ah! Ive lived in this world of evil and bad

Sad and heartbreaking, to say the least
Everyone preoccupied with everything

With neighbors, housewives and thieves.

The only one I can think of, that I do not

Despise or hate, is an acquaintance
Ive met, in the depths of Iceland,

He left me a riddle to think:

Said he Why do you call me a great man?

One you do not understand; with
Dog-like devotion and faith?

Perhaps it is that, a midget cant live

without an impressive mate?

Said I to him, as he walked away, It is

Because youre impressive to
Them, not me!...

Part Two
Midget Hell

I visited hell, once upon a time with

Its torture chambers and horrid
Rhymes

If I could, I would take half of earththere,

Simply to see what they could bear;
Thus, her soft white dreams that she

Once seen, would then be in

the devils care.

.

With scorpions, dim and dark, and spiteful

And horrible soundsof hissing
By your bed; with all of this I fear my friend,

In Hell, youd wish you were never dead.

As the wiggly worms climb all about, what

Gruesome view to hear men shout;
To see the horned malamute dogs growl

Savagely, licking everything foul.

.

But I am a midget, of thirty-six inches tall

Five Ways To Profit From Public Domain Information
Ever wondered why Walt Disney never got sued for intellectual property theft?

Cmon, the guy .....
That is all,
Blue-eyed, wings that dont fly,

Blood that rushes to my head

When I get mad

Oh, sometimes I play the fool, I jerk and

Shiver all over, but no one
NoticesId like to squash them too;

My life in their minds, unnoticed.

Part Three
Midget Madness

I hate those I can understand; those I

Do not, I find myself unarmed,
And wishing I could.

Everyones in a bubble of superiority,

This of course irritates me
Their soft white hush, which is more like

Cadaverous mush, wrapped up

up, in their crystal like dreams!

If it was up to me, Id rape the whores

And kill the queen;
Thats the sensible side of me,

The Midget side, if you please.

.

Hell with the meaning of life, just give me

A dagger or knife; wise men die
Like midgets and fools, the only difference

Is, they went to school.

The fate of man, is not in his hands,

As hed like all to believe!
Nor will pious images save him, they

Come and go like fools gold;

This is very plane to see!

I need no flattery like they, only a

Purpose for today!

Part Four
Midget Love

I have sung many praises to love and

Beauty:
Above all, they sing back to me:

The waters are still, the witches
Are real, and twilight is chilled;

Menopause Couples
Couples going through menopause often have unique struggles when coping with the new changes and challenges it brings to them both as individuals, .....
But my heart is tattered gray
For who loves a midget anyway?

I have my cross, where the Christians

Walk, for I tried to be a Christian
You see; and by love and faith

I made a mistakea midgets a

midget, also,
in the halls of Christianity.

.

Blaspheme, blaspheme, everywhere,

Id like to load my gun,
Face the sun, twist some bones

In and out of their chest!...

Too bad Im harmless

I look out my midget door, once more

Very little do I see, only people
So many people, with envy, envy;

I just wanted to be loved you see.

Part Five
Chavin De Huantar

I must return today! Ancient am I

Compared to thee
They are taking me back with an

Escort I see, like a prince

under a princes care.

They are humble to me, Im not human

You see, or so I wish not to be;
To them Im a millionaire.

There is no pretence

in the world for them
And in Chavin de Huantar Ill be.

.

In point of fact, Ill never be back,

Chavin de Huantar will be
My home; even the ignorant understand

One must wash his hands, when

all that is left is famine!...

Oda, al Enano Poderoso Omac

Translated by Nancy Penaloza

Parte Uno

Historia Diminuta

Soy treinta y seis pulgadas altas, que es todo-

Honesto al dios soy
Mi pelo es verde, mis ojos rojos, y yo

Tengo un cuello muy grueso
Mis cejas son delgadas, y mi barba

Tiene tres pelos
Y llev el abuso, cuando yo era jven

S! Result ser; da a da
amigos se ren de m, mi aspecto

Usted veyo los hago horrorizar.
.
Soy medio anciano, no muy viejo, ni soy

yo: piadoso, pobre, o un idiota;
Mis arrugas y defectos son como son

Son - yo no los cambiara
por alimento u oro.

Vine de una raza, desde dentro la tierra

Do You Need Bad Credit Help
Do you need bad credit help? Are you one of thousands with no

credit and no collateral to help secure approval, or you .....
Ms antiguo que el hombre mismo;
entonces que hago, se lo dejo a ud-

Solamente llmeme Omac,
el Enano Poderoso.

Ah! He vivido en este mundo del demonio y del mal-

Triste y desgarrador, para decir lo menos
Cada uno preocupado por todo-

Con vecinos, amas de casa y ladrones.

El nico en el que puedo pensar, que no

Desprecie u odie, es un conocido
lo encontr, en las profundidades de Islandia,

l me dej una criba para pensar:
Dijo l " Por qu me llama usted un gran hombre?

Uno no entiende;
Devocin de perro y fe?

Quizs es que, un enano no puede vivir
sin un compaero impresionante? "
Dije yo a l, en tanto l se alej, " esto es

porque tu eres impresionante
Ellos, no yo! ...

Parte Dos

Infierno Diminuto

Visit el infierno, alguna vez

Sus cmaras de tortura y horribles
Rimas
Si yo pudiera, yo llevara la mitad de la tierra -all,

Simplemente para ver lo que ellos podran llevar;
As, sus sueos suaves blancos que ella

Una vez vio, entonces estara en
el cuidado del diablo.
.
Con Escorpiones, dbiles y oscuros, y rencoroso

Y sonidos horribles - de silbido
Por su cama; con todo esto temo mi amigo,

En el Infierno, usted deseara no estar muerto.
Como los gusanos ondulados subiendo sobre todo, que

Vista espantosa, or grito de hombres-;
Ver el gruido de perros de malamute astado

Ferozmente, lamiendo todo sucio.
.

Pero, soy un enano, de treinta y seis pulgadas altas

Eso es todo ,
De ojos azules las alas que no vuelan,

La sangre que se eleva a mi cabeza
cuando me pongo furioso-

Ah, a veces juego al idiota, tiro y

Tiemblo por todas partes, pero nadie
nota - me gustara aplastarlos tambin;

Mi vida en sus mentes, inadvertidas.

Parte Tres

Locura Diminuta

Odio a aquellos puedo entender;

No hago, me encuentro desarmado,
Y deseando yo podra.
A todo el mundo en una burbuja de superioridad,

Esto desde luego me irrita
Su silencio suave blanco, que es ms bien

Desplome cadavrico, envuelto
arriba, en su cristal como sueos-!
Si esto me elevara, yo violara a las rameras

Y matara a la reina-;
Esto es mi lado sensible ,

El lado Diminuto, con su permiso.
.
El infierno con el significado de vida, solamente dme

Una daga o cuchillo; hombres sabios mueren
Como enanos y tontos, la nica diferencia

Es, ellos fueron a la escuela.
El destino del hombre, no est en sus manos,

Como le gustara a todos creer!
Tampoco imgenes piadosas lo salvarn, ellos

Vienen y van como

como oro de tontos;
Esto es muy claro para ver!
No necesito ninguna adulacin como ellos, slo un

Objetivo para hoy !

Parte Cuatro

Amor Diminuto

He cantado muchas alabanzas para el amor y

Belleza-:
Encima de todo, ellos cantan atrs:de mi.

" Las aguas son todava, las brujas
Son verdadero, y el crepsculo es frio;

Pero mi corazn es de color gris andrajoso-
Pero quin ama a un enano de todos modos? "
Tengo mi cruz, donde los cristianos

El paso-, ya que trat de ser Cristiano
Usted ve-; y por amor y fe

Hice un herror a los
enanos
enano, tambin,
en los pasillos de cristianismo.

.
Blasfeme, blasfeme, por todas partes,

Me gustara cargar mi arma,
Afrontar el sol, torcer algunos huesos

dentro y fuera de su pecho!...
Demasiado malo soy inofensivo

Miro mi puerta diminuta, una vez ms

Muy poco hago, yo veo, slo pueblo
Tantas personas, con envidia, envidia;

Solamente quise ser amado usted ve.

Parte Cinco

Chavin de Huantar

Debo volver hoy! Antiguo soy yo

Comparado a Usted
Ellos me toman atrs como una

escolta yo veo, como un prncipe
bajo el cuidado de prncipes.
Ellos son humildes para m, no soy humano

Usted ve, o entonces deseo no ser;
para ellos soy un millonario.

No hay ningn pretexto
en el mundo para ellos
Y en Chavin de Huantar yo ser.
.

En realidad, nunca volver,

Chavin de Huantar ser
Mi casa; an el ignorante entienden

Hay que lavar sus manos, cuando
todol es dejado es el hambre!...
