Examples of poetry

1943

Jos on sinua

niin kuin minua

kiskottu kahtaalle, uuvuksiin,

tietänet senkin:

uupuenkin

alati uudestisynnyttiin

(from 'Pientä kokoa' in the collection Uusi runo, 1943)

1946

A race of sucklers, with gnashing jaws,

you finished the tale of the dinosaurs,

but you'll never rise above the earth

as we: you're dust and soil and dearth,

an organised pack with famished maws. -

Maybe you'll rise from your mud one day.

How much, it's up to you say."

(from 'The Last Dinosaur' in Huojuvat Keulat, 1946)
