Ohio Total Solar Eclipse

The Queen

by Pablo Neruda tr. Donald D. Walsh

I have named you queen. There are taller than you, taller. There are purer than you, purer. There are lovelier than you, lovelier.

But you are the queen.

When you go through the streets No one recognizes you. No one sees your crystal crown, no one looks At the carpet of red gold That you tread as you pass, The nonexistent carpet.

And when you appear All the rivers sound In my body, bells Shake the sky, And a hymn fills the world.

Only you and I, Only you and I, my love, Listen to it.

Reclining Nude by Alphonse Lecadre (1870)

— Carolina Outcrop

Circe Invidiosa by John William Waterhouse (1892)

I think this weekend I’ll go on an alcohol bender

But at least drinks are free when you’re the bartender.

Be softer with you. You are a breathing thing. A memory to someone. A home to a life.
