A giant dredger drudges
Night and day, to empty
Sea stomach of its bloat,
Moving chunks of sands
By big snake in the sea.
A big sea snake now lies
In the sea from dredger,
All the way to the shore.
It heaves, up and down,
In a rhythm with waves.
After the great dredgery,
Sea will be lean and thin
But the beach will be fat
And ugly ,no body walks.
No one will recall snake.
Sappho, spelled (in the dialect spoken by the poet) Psappho, (born c. 610, Lesbos, Greece — died c. 570 BCE). A lyric poet greatly admired in all ages for the beauty of her writing style.
Her language contains elements from Aeolic vernacular and poetic tradition, with traces of epic vocabulary familiar to readers of Homer. She has the ability to judge critically her own ecstasies and grief, and her emotions lose nothing of their force by being recollected in tranquillity.
