Babelfishing Poetry: "Wait, Isato"
Babelfishing Poetry: "Wait, Isato"
Hello! Would you like to see some more Babelfishing Poetry, where I take song lyrics, run them through an on-line translator such as (but not necessarily) Babelfish, modify the punctuation a bit, and wind up with a quirky kind of poem? You would? Well, you're in luck, because here it is!
This week it's indie rockers Band Of Horses, and "Is There A Ghost" (watch video here). Enjoy.
Wait, Isato
I cannot sleep.
He can sleep.
Sleeping.
Sleepless.
Reward?
Stay home.
I can't sleep.
He can sleep.
My impossible sleep.
I, consulting, asleep.
Encouragement.
Waiting house.
Pay for the report.
Wait, Isato,
at his house.
