Michelangelo, Sonnet with sketch Artist: Michelangelo Title: Sonnet with sketch Text of sonnet: I’ve already grown a goiter at this drudgery— as the water gives the cats in Lombardy, or else it may be in some other country— which sticks my stomach by force beneath my chin. With my beard toward heaven, I feel my memory-box atop my hump; I’m getting a harpy’s breast; and the brush that is always above my face, by dribbling down, makes it an ornate pavement. My loins have entered my belly, and I make my ass into a crupper as counterweight; without my eyes, my feet move aimlessly. In front of me my hide is stretching out and, to wrinkle up behind, it forms a knot, and I am bent like a Syrian bow. Therefore the reasoning that my mind produces comes out unsound and strange, for one shoots badly through a crooked barrel. Giovanni, from now on defend my dead painting, and my honor, since I’m not in a good position, nor a painter. Michelangelo, Sonnet with sketch
