Stephen Spender - On The Third Day

On the first summer day I lay in the valley.
Above rocks the sky sealed my eyes with a leaf
The grass licked my skin. The flowers bound my nostrils
With scented cotton threads. The soil invited
My hands and feet to grow down and have roots.
Bees and grass-hoppers drummed over
Crepitations of thirst rising from dry stones,
And the ants rearranged my ceaseless thoughts
Into different patterns for ever the same.
Then the blue wind fell out of the air
And the sun hammered down till I became of wood
Glistening ...

Como Um Sonho Acordado

Como se a Terra corresse 
Inteirinha atrás de mim 
O medo ronda-me os sentidos 
Por abaixo da minha pele 
Ao esgueirar-se viscoso 
Escorre pegajoso 
E sai 
Pelos meus poros 
Pelos meus ais 
Ele penetra-me nos ossos 
Ao derramar-se sedento 
Nas entranhas sinuosas 
Entre as vísceras mordendo 
Salta e espalha-se no ar 
Vai e volta 
Delirante 
Tão delirante 
É como um sonho acordado 
Esse vulto besuntado 
A revolver-se no lodo 
A deslizar de uma larva 
Emergindo lá no fundo 
Tenho medo ó medo 
Leva tudo é tudo teu 
Mas de...

Carol Ann Duffy - Before You Were Mine

I’m ten years away from the corner you laugh on
with your pals, Maggie McGeeney and Jean Duff.
The three of you bend from the waist, holding
each other, or your knees, and shriek at the pavement.
Your polka-dot dress blows round your legs. Marilyn.
 
I’m not here yet. The thought of me doesn’t occur
in the ballroom with the thousand eyes, the fizzy, movie tomorrows
the right walk home could bring. I knew you would dance
like that. Before you were mine, your Ma stands at the close
with a hiding for the lat...

Life on Mars

NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance mission captured thrilling footage of its rover landing in Mars' Jezero Crater on Feb. 18, 2021. The real footage in this video was captured by several cameras that are part of the rover's entry, descent, and landing suite. The views include a camera looking down from the spacecraft's descent stage (a kind of rocket-powered jet pack that helps fly the rover to its landing site), a camera on the rover looking up at the descent stage, a camera on the top of the aeros...
