The Forest Lake

Nos versos de Edith Södergran, e da inevitável oposição do novo homem, que ascende num impulso vital, à realidade apartada de quem o cria. 

I was alone on a sunny shore

by the forest’s pale blue lake,

in the sky floated a single cloud

and on the water a single island.

Ripe summer’s sweetness dripped

in pearls from every tree

and into my opened heart

a little drop ran down.

about Mark Strand

We have done what we wanted.
We have discarded dreams, preferring the heavy industry 
of each other, and we have welcomed grief
and called ruin the impossible habit to break.

And now we are here.
The dinner is ready and we cannot eat. 
The meat sits in the white lake of its dish. 
The wine waits.

Coming to this
has its rewards: nothing is promised, nothing is taken away. 
We have no heart or saving grace,
no place to go, no reason to remain. 

this is the girl

and 'failing' rising

The spring sea rising
and falling, rising
and falling all day.

diziam-me que a poesia de cummings era uma questão de exaltação

I will wade out
                        till my thighs are steeped in burning flowers
I will take the sun in my mouth
and leap into the ripe air
                                       Alive
                                                 with closed eyes
to dash against darkness
                                       in the sleeping curves of my body
Shall enter fingers of smooth mastery
with chasteness of sea-girls
                                            Will i complete the mystery
                                            of my flesh
I will rise
               After a thousand years
lipping
flowers
             And set my teeth in the silver of the moon
