Anne Boyer, What Resembles the Grave But Isn’t

GOD IS SILENT; GOD IS EATEN

Margaret Atwood, ‘Eating Snake’, Interlunar K-Ming Chang, ‘Roast duck elegy’ Anne Sexton, ‘The Civil War’ The Seventh Seal (1957), dir. Ingmar Bergman Margaret Atwood, ‘Crow Song’ Wolf Alice, ‘Silk’, My Love Is Cool Yves Olade, ‘Belovéd’

“Love has something to do with the notion of being seen — the opposite of invisibility. The invisible, the unwitnessed, the unacknowledged, the isolated, the lonely — these are the unloved. Loving attention illuminates the unseen, escorting them from the frontiers of lovelessness into the observed world. To truly see someone — anyone — is an act that acknowledges and forgives our common and imperfect humanity. Love enacts a kind of vigilant perception — whether it is to a partner, a child, a co-worker, a neighbour, a fellow citizen, or any other person one may encounter in this life. Love says softly — I see you. I recognise you. You are human, as am I.”

— Nick Cave, The Red Hand Files Issue #103

Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

“when you fall in love- you fall into an ocean. it is vast, it is deep, it is powerful. so, swim a little.”

— swim a little. |(morsus engel)|
