Hart Crane: Voyages II (English)

 
--And yet this great wink of eternity, 
Of rimless floods, unfettered leewardings, 
Samite sheeted and processioned where 
Her undinal vast belly moonward bends, 
Laughing the wrapt inflections of our love; 

Take this Sea, whose diapason knells 
On scrolls of silver snowy sentences, 
The sceptred terror of whose sessions rends 
As her demeanors motion well or ill, 
All but the pieties of lovers' hands. 

And onward, as bells off San Salvador 
Salute the crocus lustres of the stars, 
In these poinsettia meadows of her tides,-- 
Adagios of islands, O my Prodigal, 
Complete the dark confessions her veins spell. 

Mark how her turning shoulders wind the hours, 
And hasten while her penniless rich palms 
Pass superscription of bent foam and wave,-- 
Hasten, while they are true,--sleep, death, desire, 
Close round one instant in one floating flower. 

Bind us in time, O Seasons clear, and awe. 
O minstrel galleons of Carib fire, 
Bequeath us to no earthly shore until 
Is answered in the vortex of our grave 
The seal's wide spindrift gaze toward paradise.

Grue De Cerf: Voyages II (French)

 
grand -- mais ce cligne de l'oeil de l'éternité, des inondations 
rimless, des leewardings sans entrave, Samite couvertes et 
processioned où son vaste moonward de ventre d'undinal se plie, riant 
les inflexions de wrapt de notre amour; 

Prendre cette mer, dont le diapason sonne sur des rouleaux de phrases 
neigeuses argentées, sceptred la terreur laquelle des sessions rends 
comme ses comportements font signe bien ou malade, tout sauf les 
pieties des mains des amoureux. 

Et en avant, pendant que les cloches outre du salvador de San saluent 
les lustres de crocus des étoiles, dans ces prés de poinsettia de 
ses marées, - - des adagios des îles, O mon prodigue, accomplissent 
les confessions foncées elle charme de veines. 

La marque comment sa rotation épaule le vent les heures, et 
accélèrent tandis que ses paumes riches sans ressources passent le 
superscription de la mousse et de la vague coudées, - - accélérer, 
alors qu'elles sont true, -- sommeil, la mort, le désir, fin autour 
d'un instant en une fleur flottante. 

Nous lier à temps, des saisons de O clairement, et la crainte. Les 
galleons de troubadour de O du carib nous mettent le feu, lèguent à 
aucun rivage terrestre jusqu'à ce que soit répondu dans le vortex du 
notre tombe le regard fixe large du spindrift du joint vers le 
paradis.

Guindaste Do Cervo: Viagens II (Portuguese)

 
-- no entanto este grande pisca do eternity, das inundações rimless, 
de leewardings unfettered, Samite sheeted e processioned onde seu 
moonward vasto da barriga do undinal se dobra, rindo os inflections do 
wrapt de nosso amor; 

Fazer exame deste mar, cujo o diapason knells em scrolls das 
sentenças snowy de prata, sceptred o terror cujas de sessões rends 
como seus demeanors fazem sinal bem ou doente, tudo mas os pieties das 
mãos dos amantes. 

E para a frente, enquanto os sinos fora do salvador de San saudam os 
lustres do açafrão das estrelas, nestes prados do poinsettia de suas 
marés, - - adagios dos consoles, O meu prodigal, termina os 
confessions escuros ela período das veias. 

A marca como seu giro empurra o vento as horas, e hasten quando suas 
palmas ricas penniless passa o superscription de espuma e de onda 
curvadas, - - hasten, quando forem true, -- sono, morte, desejo, fim 
em volta de um instante em uma flor flutuando. 

Ligar-nos a tempo, estações de O claramente, e awe. Os galleons do 
minstrel de O do carib ateiam-nos fogo, bequeath a nenhuma costa 
earthly até que esteja respondido no vortex do nosso sepultura o 
olhar largo do spindrift do selo para o paradise.

Grúa Del Ciervo: Viajes II (Spanish)

 
-- pero este grande guiña de eternidad, de las inundaciones rimless, 
de leewardings unfettered, Samite cubiertas y processioned donde su 
moonward extenso del vientre del undinal se dobla, riendo las 
inflexiones del wrapt de nuestro amor; 

Tomar este mar, que diapason knells en las volutas de las oraciones 
nevosas de plata, sceptred el terror que de sesiones rends como sus 
demeanors indican bien o enfermo, todo pero los pieties de las manos 
de los amantes. 

Y hacia adelante, como las campanas del Salvador de San saludan los 
lustres del azafrán de las estrellas, en estos prados del poinsettia 
de sus mareas, - - los adagios de las islas, O mi prodigal, termina 
las confesiones oscuras ella encanto de las venas. 

La marca cómo el su dar vuelta lleva a hombros el viento las horas, y 
acelera mientras que sus palmas ricas penniless pasa el superscription 
de la espuma y de la onda dobladas, - - acelerar, mientras que son 
true, -- sueño, muerte, deseo, cierre alrededor de un instante en una 
flor flotante. 

Atarnos en tiempo, estaciones de O claramente, y temor. Los galleons 
del minstrel de O del carib nos encienden, legan a ninguna orilla 
terrenal hasta que se contesta en el vórtice de nuestro sepulcro la 
mirada fija amplia del spindrift del sello hacia paraíso.

B'Fhiú an Braon Fola: James Franco, The Broken Tower by Mike Begnal (2013/02/24 17:34)
The film unfolds episodically (in segments titled “Voyages”), but the emphasis is always visual rather than narrative. Or rather, the narrative exists simply in the juxtaposition of the images. There is also lots of talking ... Poetry readings can be dull, sure, but if Hart Crane is reading it's going to be a different story, and Franco did a pretty good job at being Crane, I think. This scene forces the viewer to become a listener, to hear Crane's words, to tune into the poem itself.

Written, directed, and starring Franco, The Broken Tower tells the story of poet Hart Crane (1899-1932). Franco filmed The Broken Tower at the end of his time at New York ... Unfolding episodically, the film takes its cues from Crane's poem “ Voyages” (1926). Ostensibly, it suggests the vignettes are separate journeys, as each is prefaced by the title screen “Voyage I,” “Voyage II,” “Voyage III,” etc. On paper, this sounds like a competent mechanism for this particular story.
