Can you understand Pedro's new Berlin poem? I'm so curious what he means but have no idea half the time.

Who can ever be sure with Pedro, to be honest. I have some loose grasp of its central theme, but there are a lot of hindrances lmfao: I generally just don't understand Pedro's art, no matter how much I want to haha, and the language; the English translation seems to be a little too literal of his Spanish, just a word for word thing, and not...say, a literary translation. And I don't know much Spanish or the connotions associatied with his word choices, sentence structure, etc.

Anyway, here's what I got. I don't think it's operating on any "real" level, as in the poem is about particular people and situations in Andrés' life. There's some of that, yes, but it's much more of the worldview and/or a very symbolic dream of the character. And that which centralises around the cycle of life and death, nearly entirely. (The part that breaks that rule the most is surprisingly number two.)

You start with the snake, which is very interesting here because Pedro double-uses it both from biblical and general mythology; it's both the serpent that expelled Adam and Eve from Eden and also the snake from the Uroboro cycle, the one that eats its own tail in a cycle of death and rebirth. And he first paints this image of Eden through the reptiles/insects image: In number three, he starts it nearly biblically, in Genesis language "First there was the bird" in this film/play of reptiles or insects, who embraced without shame "the undifferentiated". I think this is a clear Adam and Eve imagery before the serpent, who did introdue to them awareness, and with general awareness comes the fear and anxiety, awareness of the self that brings with it shame and differentiation. But which also allows one to be more than skulls (which it's affirmed are nothing more than skulls with 'No más') and anonymous animals. They crawl in search for their own soul, but once the soul is found, it brings with it recognition, and with the recognition, terror and restlessness and shame.

The poem then questions that exact same point through the voice of Ulysses, who asks 'why should they be afraid of themselves?" for those who crawled are the ones who dared. On that note, I'm not sure whether it's accidental, but it's interesting that in the English version he posted "Ulises" is written as "He". I remember this one post Pedro once made about Ulysses/Odysessus and how powerfully he's affected by the character/story, and I think here he's associating him a lot with Berlin, who is all about daring, crawling. But Ulysses has arguably gone through the whole journey and his problem lies with its completion, with this challenge at the end, of returning home (and definitely to the self or at the least to the place where he will be once again recognised). Anyway, as he/Ulysses/Berlin continue this animalistic imagery, he also ridicules that previous point more and more, as how can a man who didn't drop down on all fours and crawled in grasp for his own self expect to gain any respect? (in Spanish the point is even closer because of the word "reptando" which has the other words of "reptiles" and thus of serpent more apparent in it and which takes me to the next part-

This part here is a little far fetched but I do find it very interesting that this continuous image beginning in number one and continuing in three is halted, nearly broken with number two. But not fully. It directly jumps to "love" and the madmen who decided to reach the absolute limits and even beyond (which I'm sure we all think is about berlermo), but it's connected through '(beyond) the dangers of "flight"', and then it picks up again in number three with the Bird, who is also the Serpent. And it's fascinating to me because who/what is the bird? I think the Serpent/Bird here is ALSO the reptiles/Adam and eve. As in, the madmen are both the destruction they wrought and the ones inflicted upon by it.

The serpent is basically, biblicaly at least, awareness (and the subsequent fear) of death. But again, that fear of (self-) awarness is ridiculed. Because even, especially, "self-destruction" isn't frowned upon here, quite the contrary, "the snake, your snake comes from the hand", the snake is born out of the self and it is what ends the self. It's only its perpetuate self-eating that allows the infinite cycle, rebirth and eternity (and I'd say that's very much in line with Berlin's worldview).

In the fundemental turn of the snake to devor its own tail, there is an emptiness/abyss in this circle that is created by the move and in it lies everything: infinity, meaning. And I think the "rattlesnake" child is also a very interesting addition that adds to this, interprets it in one way and also ties to Berlin's canon. Because you can say a child is an extension of one self (and why patricide is such a strong motif of self-destruction, on behalf of the "father"/matricide, etc; like the "thing" you begot to extend yourself is also the end of yourself but ALSO it is how you go on!). And the point keeps getting repeated and affirmed, "Each time it is born, each time it dies."

Then the last part picks up on the skull imagery again but grounds it in a specific skull-Yorick's. And it's the honestly the perfect way to tie all those images and tangents together. When we meet Yorick in Hamlet, we meet him through his skull, the grim reality of death and ending up nothing but a mere bone in the dirt, but it also what speaks up the vividness of his life before his death to the audience, so real in Hamlet's dialogue that we can see it, and we wouldn't have had his skull not been found. And it's this paradox, between life and death; life at its most radiant and death at its most grim that sums it all up: In that place that's created in the paradox between them is where infinity lies. And where it waits for whoever is brave and mad enough to reach for it.

#I hope this can help! #it's at least how I personally read it #I can't do much with the paintings attached to them because as much as I admire Pedro's paintings I truly never have any idea what's happen #only the first one I have a thought or two about it #it's interesting that with the snake in the painting there are two men; not a man and a woman. and I think they are very much the madmen #from their eyes #and the snake is going through them #this is a delusional berlermo reading haha BUT: the snake's association with mortality and the awareness of it (and also shame!!!) being #painted over the two mad men and intersecting with them so deeply- #just. yes #the shame? the sexuality? mortality and Andrés' illness??? #anyway!

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

#ramble #if you say unalive in front of me i will personally kill you with my hands #you just can't muffle and censor and hold someone's hand through some things #some things are horrible. and they should be spoken aloud and they should upset you. because they are horrible #the second we started kidzbopifying the world was the end of taking anything seriously i think #i'm not even joking i've spoken to people older than me who won't even say the world sex #this isn't the playground you're not going to get in trouble just let us say the word!!!!!! #how am i supposed to listen to you when you won't even say the thing you're supposed to be talking about #yes this is the fault of the platforms with their censorship rules but the fact that we all just go along with it like it's not dystopian #you do know it doesn't stop with cursing right. people are already having to censor queer terms because they get flagged as inappropriate

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love

the amount of ways we have to qualify the geoncide in gaza in order to get people to care is actually sickening to me. “it’s a feminist issue!” “it’s a disabilities issue!” “it’s an environmental issue!” like i’m sorry but even if this was happening solely to able bodied men and was causing no harm to the environment, it would still be wrong because it’s a genocide and these people are being bombed and killed and starved every fucking day. you shouldn’t need an extra label to give you a reason to care about people that are dying.

#i just keep seeing more and more posts like that and it’s just. yes it is those things you’re right #but i hate that that’s how we have to get people to care #you shouldn’t have to use sjw buzzwords to get people to care #you should care because there are people dying by the thousands at israel’s hand #free palestine #greatest hits
