On The Run
we were on the run always on the run aiming for the dream gliding on a moonbeam…Christopher Andrew Stewart (The Winged Life)
The moon takes up the wondrous tale,
And nightly to the listening earth
Repeats the story of her birth.
While all the stars that round her burn,
And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the tidings as they roll,
And spread the truth from pole to pole. »
— Joseph Addison

the Sun had to tell the same story
before he went away,
leaving the forlorn moon
hankering after his light. »

as if they're trying to catch down heaven -
and now it seems that heaven is upon us
like some vast and open canvas, love flung down
in the willows' shivering intervals, their bright
and pliant stems falling like green rain ... "
from 'Beatitude (Ah! Bright Wings!)', by Fiona Benson

With men and maenads headlong
And dance the world to rights.
Be the necklace fire of stars,
The cauterising lightning.
Bewilder us with good."
from 'The Burial At Thebes', Sophocles (translated by Seamus Heaney)

or be brilliant or climb up walls
or hang from walls
but to sit in the grass
in our clean best frills and listen,
shyly nodding our heads
or shyly shaking our heads
because we understand, yes truly we do."

Mother Of Pearl
told love was not for me i used to play the fool blind to my own folly yet in me you saw the jewel…Christopher Andrew Stewart (The Winged Life)
I have become the delicate piston threading itself through your chest,
I want to tell you a story I shouldn’t but will and in the meantime neglect, Love,
the discordant melody spilling from my ears but attend,
instead, to this tale, for a river burns inside my mouth . . . ."
from "Again" by Ross Gay #poetry
Half-bright day-night
Of a misty autumn Tuesday
The chestnut kestrel
has left her tower
To stoop upon her prey
Away she hies
I might have lost her
In her fearful white sky
I'm riding in a dream
Where dark crows
Reflect the mist in silver
And startled pheasants leap
To wake me
from my sleepy reverie
I want the softness of the fog
To wrap me up
And hold me
In my dream.

Between spaghnum and buttercup,
Between dandelion and broom,
Between forget-me-not and honeysuckle,
As between clear blue and cloud,
Between haystack and sunset sky,
Between oak tree and slated roof,
I had my existence. I was there.
Me in place and the place in me."
from 'A Herbal' by Seamus Heaney

in the palm
of a human hand millions of years in the future,
says I become you
and you
a mountain of matter.
Blueberry plant stretches its roots
smelling the soil for atoms,
hears faint hand outstretched pinching stems pulling berries:
says what do I eat and who do I stain?"
from 'Mountain Blue', by Maya Chowdhry

And tempered by frost
And the mists that rise
At our annealing
Are love.
We can be lost in love
And found.
Everything is connected
As the lightning to the ground
Without these clouds
The sky could not sing
I saw my love this morning
She flew to me
Out of the gloaming day
Her stern face questioning
As she flew with me
And then she turned away
But now I know
that she's still there
And she will find
her way back home.

Book:
Il pane perduto by Bruck Edith
This one is the autobiography of a Hungarian Jewish poet who is also a Holocaust survivor. She was labeled by the media "the Anne Frank who lived", which I think is a bit iffy, but the book is nonetheless interesting. Most of it tells about her trying to find her place and purpose in the world again after surviving Auschwitz. She ended up living and publishing in Italy.
