determined to save the only life you could save
One day you finally knew
what you had to do, and began,
through the voices around you
keep shouting
their bad advice —
through the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old rug
at your ankles. [...]
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice,
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do —
determined to save
the only life you could save.
— Mary Oliver, from "The Journey" in "Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver" (Penguin Press, October 10, 2017)
