I confess no such thing. Yes, I'm not good at this yet. 
I'm not new at all:
I read TKD, cover-to-cover in 1985. 
I decided to focus on a few other languages in the intervening

I "got a life", had it, then came back here.
I've lurked and participated on this List since 1994. 
I have waited 14 years to try a poem.
I also rode up to qep'a'vaghDIch with you and Holtej.

Art reflects life. The medium is the massage.
Translating them is a natural urge. Get over it.
