Caitlin Caitlin said: " I learned a lot and had fun while doing it! Carson’s syntax and haunting precision with vocab could, though, get me to read anything. This did not feel like the burdensome, cumbersome, loathsome academic readings I’m plagued by. No no, she writes wit ...more "

“Wife of Brain

don't say you weren't
expecting a volcano those
red wings
that not even bad love can tame
must signify something's
somewhere
about to go up in flame or
(as Proust says) be

like the men

is not ill

“HE WAS FOURTEEN
it was years ago and Sad’s
name wasn’t Sad yet. First
comet. G had just
stumbled off a bus they
looked at one another and
that lasted until G was
almost twenty but he.
Well. Being a loyal soul
himself. Sad’s need to
make friends everywhere.
Sex friends club friends
gym friends dope friends
shopping friends
breakdown friends a
common enough problem.
Sad didn’t see a problem.
One day he looked around
and G was gone.”
Anne Carson, Red Doc>
