“If we knew the point
where something is going to break,
where the thread of kisses will be cut,
where a look will no longer meet another,
where the heart will leap toward another place,
we could put another point on that point
or at least go with it to its breaking.

— Roberto Juarroz, from “7,” Vertical Poetry Vol 4. Translated by W.S. Merwin. (North Point Press September 1988)”
