Part One
history of the dwarves
I’m thirty-six inches tall, that’s all…
honest with god i am
My hair is green, my eyes are red, and I
Have a very thick neck.
My eyebrows are fine and my beard
It has three hairs…
And I endured the abuse, when I was young
Yes! It happened to be; day to day…
…people laugh at me, my appearance
You see… I appeal to them.
.
I am middle-aged, not very old, nor am I
me: pious, poor or foolish;
My wrinkles and spots are like them
they are–i wouldn’t change them
…for food or gold… .
I come from a race, from within the earth
Older than man himself;
So what do I do, I leave it to you–
Just call me Omac, the Mighty Dwarf.
.
Oh! I have lived in this world of evil and evil–
Sad and heartbreaking, to say the least.
Everyone worried about everything–
With neighbors, housewives and thieves.
The only one I can think of, no
Despise or hate, is an acquaintance
I have known, in the depths of Iceland,
He left me a riddle to think about:
Said he: “Why do you call me a great man?
One you don’t understand; with
Dog devotion and faith?
Maybe that’s it, a dwarf can’t live
…without an awesome partner?”
I told him, as he walked away: “It’s
Cause you’re awesome for
They, not me!…”
The second part
hell dwarf
I visited hell, once with
Its torture chambers and horrible
rhymes…
If I could, I’d take half the land, there,
Just to see what they could take;
Thus her soft white dream that she
Once seen, then I would be in
…the demons care.
.
With scorpions, dim and dark, and spiteful
And horrible sounds – of hissing
next to your bed; with all this I fear friend,
In hell, you wish you were never dead.
As the slithering worms climb everywhere, what
Frightful sight hearing men scream–;
To see the horned malamute dogs growl
Wildly, licking everything disgusting.
.
But I’m a midget, thirty-six inches tall
That’s it…,
Blue eyes, wings that don’t fly,
Blood rushing to my head…
… When I get angry–
Oh, sometimes I play dumb, I play dumb and
Shake everywhere but no one
Notices: I would like to crush them too;
My life in their minds, unnoticed.
Part three
midget madness
I hate those I can understand; those me
No, I’m unarmed
And wishing I could.
Everyone is in a bubble of superiority,
This of course irritates me…
His soft white silence, which is more like
Cadaveric porridge, wrapped
…upstairs, in his crystal dreams–!
If it was up to me I’d rape whores
And kill the queen–;
That’s my sensitive side
The dwarf side, please.
.
To hell with the meaning of life, just give me
A dagger or knife; the wise die
Like midgets and fools, the only difference
They went to school.
The destiny of man is not in his hands,
How would you like everyone to believe!
Not even pious images will save him, they
Come and go like fool’s gold;
This is too flat to see!
I don’t need flattery like them, just a
Purpose for today…!
fourth part
midget love
I have sung many praises to love and
Beauty–:
Above all, they sing to me:
“The waters are still, the witches
they are real, and the twilight grows cold;
But my heart is tattooed in grey–
Who loves a dwarf anyway?
I have my cross, where the Christians
Walk–, because I tried to be a Christian
You will see–; and for love and faith
I made a mistake…to midgets’ to
… dwarf, too,
in the halls of Christendom.
.
Blasphemy, blasphemy, everywhere,
I’d like to load my gun
Face the sun, twist some bones
In and out of his chest!…
Too bad I’m harmless…
I look out my dwarf door once more
I see very little, only people
So many people, with envy, envy;
I just wanted to be loved, you see.
fifth part
Chavin
I have to go back today! old i am
Compared to you…
They’re taking me back with a
Escort I see, like a prince
…under the care of a prince.
They are humble with me, I am not human
You see, or so I do not wish to be;
For them I am a millionaire.
There are no claims…
…in the world for them…
And in Chavin de Huantar I will be.
.
In fact, I’ll never go back
Chavin de Huantar will be
My home; even the ignorant understand
You have to wash your hands when…
…all that remains is hunger!…

tiny story
I’m thirty-six inches tall, that’s all-
honest to god i am
My hair is green, my eyes are red, and I
I have a very hideous neck
My eyebrows are thin, and my beard
Holds very hair…
And I took the abuse, when I was young
Yes! It was; day to day…
…friends make fun of me, my appearance
You see… I make them horrify.
.
I am half old, not very old, nor am I
me: pious, poor, or an idiot;
My wrinkles and flaws are as they are
Son – I wouldn’t change them
…for food or gold.
I came from a race, from within the earth
Older than man himself;
So what do I do, I leave it to you-
Just call me Omac,
The Mighty Dwarf.
oh! I have lived in this world of devil and evil-
Sad and heartbreaking, to say the least
Everyone worried about everything-
With neighbors, housewives and thieves.
The only one I can think of, who doesn’t
Disdain or hate, is an acquaintance
I found it, in the depths of Iceland,
He left me a cradle to think:
Did he say “Why do you call me a great man?
One without understanding;
Dog devotion and faith?
Maybe it’s just that a dwarf can’t live
…without an awesome partner? ”
I said to him, as he walked away, “this is
because you are awesome
They, not me! …

Tiny Hell
Have you ever visited hell?
Its torture chambers and horrible
rhymes…
If I could, I would take half the earth – there,
Simply to see what they could carry;
So her soft white dreams that she
Once he saw, then he would be in
…the devil’s care.
.
With Scorpions, idiots and dark, and spiteful
And horrible sounds – hissing
For his bed; with all this I fear my friend,
In Hell, you wish you weren’t dead.
As the wavy worms suffered most of all, which
Frightening sight, hearing men cry-;
See the horned malamute dogs growl
Fiercely, licking all dirty.
.
But, I’m a midget, thirty-six inches tall
That’s it…,
With blue eyes, the wings that do not fly,
The blood that rose to my head…
…when I get mad-
Ah, with I play the idiot, I shoot and
I shake all over, but no one

Tiny Madness
I hate those I can hear;
I don’t do, I find myself unarmed,
And wishing I could.
To everyone in a bubble of superiority,
This certainly pissed me off…
Its silent soft white, which is rather
cadaveric collapse, wrapped
…up, in his crystal like dreams-!
If this gets me high, I’d rape harlots
And I would kill the queen-;
This is my sensitive side
The Tiny Side, with your permission.
.
Hell with the meaning of life, just give me
A dagger or knife; wise men die
Like midgets and fools, the only difference
Yeah, they went to school.
The destiny of man is not in his hands,
As you would like everyone to believe!
Neither pious images will save him, they
Come and go
like fool’s gold;
This is very clear to see!
I don’t need no flattery like them, just a
Goal for today…!
