C’est un jour de petites merveilles [This is a day of little wonders] A Cigarettes burning at both ends kind of day One of those that comes along When you’re just ready to give up And you’re not sure of anything but The color of the haze: grave nondescript shade of animosity
C’est un jour de petites rêves [This is a day of little dreams] Where the sprinkling lights of downtown Blend into a fuzzy reminders of Discothèque music and mid morning tonics Skin on skin fairy dances And black and white shudder pictures
C'est le jour qui changera le monde [This is the day that changes the world] A Fireworks of the brain light bulb kind of day One of those that makes you think more of the future than of the past When you know as the light gets in It will stay forever Tangibly pushing against the menial thoughts of self
C'est le jour du monde le fini [This the day the world ends] The Orange Fanta drips from her pale lips It bubbles, shading freckled skin Coloring fantastically within the lines of flesh Here come the flashing of the siren’s highlights The casual destruction of another government statistic
C'est le jour je trouve moi-meme [This is the day I find myself]

Once again you prove your great talent.. I love these modern poems so much, i think you could add some more senses in there, i get the french feeling of it and it wud just fit so well if you r3efered to french smells.. this is the most elaborated social critisism ive read of you and its burning hot.. the second stanza seems a bit weird in the context but still, overall this poem is excellent..

with the transaltion to the french parts this poem got so much stronger in a way as one saw the contrasts in it.. somehow the first stanza apperas to "chatty" like explaining stuff in sentences instead of using beuttiful words.. but its still a great poem..
