Leviathan

Leviathan

Leviathan of the deep blue sea,
You frighten all with your monstrous size.
Swallowing ships in one gulp
Never to be seen again,
It Makes people despise you.

-PPM

לויתן

לויתן של הים הכחול העמוק,
אתה להפחיד כל עם הגודל המפלצתי שלך.
בליעת אוניות בלגימה אחת,
לעולם לא להיראות שוב,
זה גורם לאנשים לבוז לך.

-PPM

Dragon


树果实挂低、
吓到我了、
水果上有脸!
烦死了!

幸运龙、
给我带来财富、
超出我的能力、
我会奖励你一个金色的桃花!

当心一个男人、
他跳而不是走路。
走另一条路!
他要你的血、
他已经死了、
当心僵尸!

-PPM

Dragon

Tree with fruit hanging low,
Scared me,
With their faces of human babies,
Disturbed!

Lucky dragon,
Bring me riches,
Beyond my reach,
And I’ll reward you with a golden peach.

Watch out for a man,
Who jumps instead of walking,
Run the other way,
He wants your blood,
He’s dead you see,
So watch out for the Jiang Shi.

-PPM



Chuma

Чума

Внимавайте за жестоките стрели на Чума!
Тя удря тези наи1-недостои1ните,
Когато всички грешници са взети,
Затова просете вместо това,
Молете я да остане жива,
Освен ако не искате да умрете.

-PPM


Chuma

Watch out for Chuma’s cruel arrows,
She hits those most undeserving,
When all sinners are taken.
So beg instead,
Beg to stay alive,
Unless you want to die.

-PPM



Trold

Trold

Trold i skoven,
Dværge i hylden,
Elver i opbevaringen,
Hvad helvede?

-PPM

Trolls

Troll in the forest,
Dwarfs in the shelf,
Elves in the pantry,
What the hell?

-PPM



Wendigo

Wendigo


Greed can kill,
The lowliest of men.
Turning them into cannibalistic madmen.
It comes from an intense passion to have everything.
They rise from the dead,
Death cannot stop them,
Nothing can.
They will stop at nothing to get,
What they want,
Your flesh.

Jin


جینی


خواہش مت کرنا 
ایک جنن پر
کیونکہ آپ کی خواہش پوری ہوسکتی ہے۔



-PPM

Genie

Don't make a wish,

On a genie,
Because you might get what you wish.

Lariosauro

Lariosauro

Lariosauro in the water,
By lake como,
And all the rich kids,
Pass him by in their boats.
Never wondering why,
He doesn’t come up to see them.
Yet, lariosauro doesn’t cry,
He swims up to the boats they ride in,
And nudges the boat ever so gently,
Hoping for a realization from someone that he’s there.
Lariosauro cries in the lake.
Is it a mistake?
That no one can find this giant water serpent in the lake?
Lauriosauro feels foolish,
He hopes for the day someone will find him.
So he will not be alone in Lake Como.

-PPM

Lariosauro

Lariosauro in acqua,
Sul lago di Como.
Tutti i bambini ricchi,
Lo passano nelle loro barche.
Non chiedendosi mai perché,
Non viene a vederli.
Tuttavia, Lariosauro non piange,
Nuota fino alle barche su cui viaggiano.
Si urta la barca con delicatezza 
Spera che qualcuno lo veda.
Lauriosauro piange nel lago.
È un errore?
Che nessuno può trovare questo gigantesco serpente d’acqua nel lago?
Lauriosauro si sente sciocco,
Spera per il giorno in cui qualcuno lo troverà.
Quindi non sarà solo sul Lago di Como.

-PPM



Neasaidh

Nessie

Nessie, nessie,
You’re wrong,
ya big galout,
You’re too big to hide,
However no one can find you,
Why do hide Nessie?
Where do you lay?
When you’re done for the day,
I’m tired of trying to figure out why,
You’re not there.

-PPM

Neasaidh

Neasaidh, Neasaidh
Tha thu a bhèisd
Ya mòr galoot
Tha thu ro mhòr airson falach
Ach, chan urrainn dha duine do lorg
Carson a tha thu a ‘falach Neasaidh?
Càite a bheil thu a ‘laighe?
Nuair a tha thu air a dhèanamh airson an latha,
Tha mi sgith de ‘feuchainn ri obraich a-mach carson,
Carson nach eil thu ann.

Atmospheric jellyfish / Atmosferische kwallen

Atmospheric jellyfish

Atmospheric jellyfish,
Over Groningen,
Up in the sky,
Was it a UFO, or just an illusion?
Either way, it only adds to peoples confusion.
Floating on through the sky,
I wouldn’t want to be hit in the eye,
By its dropping!
Shit!

-PPM


Atmosferische kwallen

Atmosferische kwallen,
Boven Groningen
In de lucht (in The air)
Was het een UFO, of gewoon een illusie?
Hoe dan ook het voegt alleen maar verwarring van mensen.
Drijvend door de lucht
Ik zou niet in de ogen willen worden geraakt
Door zijn uitwerpselen!
Verrek!

-PPM


जंतु

Cat

Black winged cat,
Scares people on the ground,
Worried about where the cat will land. 

-PPM

जंतु

काली पंख वाली बिल्ली,
जमीन पर लोगों को डराता है,
वे डरते हैं कि बिल्ली कहाँ उतरेगी।.

-PPM



雪の女/ Snow Woman

Snow Woman

Woman of the snow,
You look,
So cold.

Fragile,
Fleeting,
Seasonal.

Does time keep repeating,
What you already know?
The cold takes all.

ーPPM

雪の女

雪の女
見て
とても寒い。

脆弱、
つかの間、
季節性。

時間は繰り返し続けるのか?
すでに知っていますか?
寒さがすべてを取ります。

ーPPM

Real Meat

Real Meat

Real meat
Is dead
It's dead
What you are putting
Into your mouth
Once had a face
Once had a life
Now it’s just empty calories that never had a chance at a life
At truly existing
It's in your head now
Nothing left to be said
Cause real meat is dead
So, go eat a veggie burger instead.

Radiant magistrate

Radiant magistrate
Radiant magistrate
Oh, please tell me the fate
Of the poor boy down the street
Who never has enough to eat
Isn’t there anything that you can do?
Hasn’t he suffered enough by your impermanent jurisdiction,
Caused by your utter lack of belief that any implication in helping those below you
Is simply something you cannot do.

Runny Makeup

Runny Makeup

The heat is getting to me
It is more than I can bear
It's barely believable that anyone can stand it at all
So, I just stare blankly at the sun
Hoping the good times I'll have without the sun beating down on me
Are soon to begin
But it ruined my perfect makeup look
That took hours to perfect
From that famous Instagram superstar
Who people don't tend to forget
Due to her outrageously perfect makeup routine
That even the stars envy
She makes makeup look like a form of art 
That you would find on a wall in a great museum
Not like the one hanging down your hall
This heat is unbearable
I really can’t take it anymore
I think I might need to move to somewhere in the arctic circle
Or some other place where glaciers are present
And polar bears roam around the place
And there's nothing but vast, empty open space
More importantly though I won’t have runny makeup.

Ruined Majesty

Ruined Majesty


Ruined majesty

In all its splendid tragedy
Bows right before me sadly
Humbled on crumpled knee
Solemnly creeping towards
Some imaginary relief
Behind me
Yet it is not there
No matter how hard one stares
Wishing, wanting, and waiting for
Something to be there
For someone to care
Still they don't
The man waits silently
Until the day that the crumbled facade
Won't fade away into barren, remorseless desert landscape.

Ruby Macaw

Ruby Macaw

Ruby macaw brilliantly flashes its feathers at me
Flickering them so vividly it reminds one of a señoritas skirt
Flirting with anyone whom catches a look
At the beauty inherent in flamenco
Ruby Macaw you are so pretty
It makes me nauseated to think
How endangered your species must be
And all because you are too pretty
Maybe you should tone it down
Maybe you should change your vibrant red feathers brown
Maybe that would save you from the terrible fate of being stuck behind an iron gate
For the rest of your lingering existence
Just because you are too pretty.

---PPM

Real Macabre

Real Macabre


Death humbles all

Into the ground below
Where the grass doesn't grow
And bugs crawl real slow
Into you grave
Shallow and dingy
Rotten and repugnant
Real macabre
An appalling thought
But, death gives you a chance
After all, life is a dance
And you only have one chance
So, dance, dance, dance
Death is the beginning of the end
Now you must choose
How you will live
Not only for yourself
You must also think of future generations
Even those from other nations
You can go to the underworld weeping and wailing
Or you can decide to keep on prevailing
Till the end of your ailing days.
