Gregory Orr
“To be alive: not just the carcass /
But the spark.
That's crudely put, but...
If we're not supposed to dance,
Why all this music?”
Gregory Orr

“And I dream too much and I don't write enough and I'm trying to find God everywhere.”
Anis Mojgai, "For those Who Can Ride in an Airplane For the First Time."

Rainer Maria Rilke
“So now my prayer is this:

You, my own deep soul,
trust me. I will not betray you.
My blood is alive with many voices
telling me I am made of longing.

— Rainer Maria Rilke, from “Dann bete du, wie es dich dieser Iehrt,” Rilke’s Book of Hours: Love Poems to God, trans. Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy (Riverhead Books, 1996)”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Nina MacLaughlin
“His eyes they held the most dangerous thing, they held the top of the sins. Indifference. Indifference. A vacancy where human care should be.”
Nina MacLaughlin, Wake, Siren: Ovid Resung

Leila Chatti
“When you left I walked
into the ocean. Not to
drown but to be held

by something
reluctant
to let go. Don’t

make this bigger
than it is, which is big
enough to swallow

whales
and civilizations.
I joined

the blue, I was blue.
And when I looked
down, I shattered

and reformed
so many times, you know, I couldn’t catch
a clear look at myself.”
Leila Chatti
