Richard Siken
“In these dreams it's always you:
the boy in the sweatshirt,
the boy on the bridge, the boy who always keeps me
from jumping off the bridge.

and want to be rescued.”
Richard Siken, Crush

“Even in poetry I forgive you nothing

Hera Lindsay Bird, Hera Lindsay Bird

Anne Carson

Kazuo Ishiguro
“But in the end, stories are about one person saying to another: This is the way it feels to me. Can you understand what I’m saying? Does it feel this way to you?”
Kazuo Ishiguro

Eve Babitz
