…these hands would pull you out of the sky as if you had shattered there, dashed yourself to pieces in some wild impatience. What is this I feel falling now, falling on this parched earth, softly, like a spring rain?

Rainer Maria Rilke, from The Book of Hours II, 34 (via watchoutforintellect)

To think that those men lived thousands of years ago, and you feel they are just like the men of today.

Carole Lombard, 1932.

The summer sun ray shifts through a suspicious tree, though I walk through the valley of shadow it sucks the air and looks around for me. The grass speaks. I hear green chanting all day. I will fear no evil, fear no evil. The blades extend and reach my way. The sky breaks. It sags and breathes upon my face, in presence of mine enemies, mine enemies. The world is full of enemies. There is no safe place.

Anne Sexton, “Noon Walk on the Asylum Lawn“

Vivo en mis piernas de madera y Oh mis verdes, verdes manos. demasiado tarde para desear que no haya huido de ti, Apolo, La sangre se mueve todavía en mi corteza trabada de venas. Yo, que corría con pie de ninfa para arraigar en vuelo, tengo sólo este último deseo: abrazar a los árboles en los que yazgo dentro. El compás que he perdido apacigua mi pulso. Cada siglo las supercherías de la necesidad me lastiman por doquier. La helada clavetea mi piel y me quedo brillante en honor de que te hayas ido a tiempo. El aire suena por ti, por ese sorprendente rito de la carpa de mi respiración perdida en tu luz. Sólo conozco cómo esta intempestiva lascivia ha lanzado la carne al viento para siempre y mueve mis miedos hacia la Roma íntima del mito que cruzamos. Yo soy un puño de mi desasosiego cuando me vierto hacia las estrellas en los años vacíos. Construyo el aire con la corona del honor, esto me sitúa fuera del tiempo y del apetito desafortunado. Tú me diste honor demasiado pronto, Apolo. No hay nadie que comprenda cómo yo espero aquí en mis piernas de madera y Oh mis verdes, verdes manos.

Anne Sexton, “Donde yo vivo en esta honorable casa de laurel”

I have gone out a possessed witch, haunting the black air, braver at night, dreaming devil, I have done my hitch over the plain houses, light by light: lonely thing, twelve-fingered, out of mind. A woman like that is not a woman, quite. I have been her kind.

Anne Sexton, “To Bedlam And Part Way Back“
