[Fwd: QUERY: Po ème de Maïakov ski]

[Irene Delic]

This seems to be from A Cloud in Trousers, section 4: Ia dumal-ty vsesil'nyi
bozhishche,/ a ty nedouchka, krokhotnyi bozhik. Vidish, ia nagibaius',/iz-za
golenishcha/dostaiu sapozhnyi nozhik. I say "seems" since my French is not
that good, but I thought I recognized the passage.

-------- Original Message --------
Subject: QUERY: Poème de Maïakovski
Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2006 18:28:35 +0200
From: Gotzon Egia <gegia at GIPUZKOA.NET>

J'aurais besoin de savoir si quelqu'un pouvait identifier cet extrait
d'un poème de Maïakovski :

« Moi qui croyais que tu étais un gigantesque Dieu omnipotent, je vois
que tu n’es qu’un petit raté, un dieusaillon minime. Regarde bien ! Je
vais me baisser à présent pour retirer un long surin de ma bottine. »

La citation apparaît au début du film « Les États nordiques », de Denis
Côté.


Synopsis: Gotzon Egia would like to know if anyone can recognize the
Mayakovsky poem quoted (in French translation) above. It appeared at the
beginning of the film /Les États nordiques/ aka /Drifting States/ by
Denis Côté.

If anyone here knows the answer, please reply directly. Thank you.
