A great Hope fell You heard no noise The Ruin was within Oh cunning Wreck That told no tale And let no Witness in
The mind was built for mighty Freight For dread occasion planned How often foundering at Sea Ostensibly, on Land
A not admitting of the wound Until it grew so wide That all my Life had entered it And there were troughs beside -
A closing of the simple lid That opened to the sun Until the tender Carpenter Perpetual nail it down -
Emily Dickinson, from Envelope Poems

There is no catastrophe, no tipping point, no rupture. Emily's withdrawal is gradual. Maybe quite simply, like most people who, as they age, grow more set in their ways and become more profoundly themselves, she gave into her natural penchant: solitude, and its corollary, silence. It isn't really that hard to imagine.
Dominique Fortier, from Paper Houses (tr. Rhonda Mullins, Coach House Books 2019)

Thinking of Emily
Dickinson with this vase and it’s sense of space.
“We introduce ourselves
To Planets and
To Flowers
But with
ourseives
Have Etiquettes
Embarrassments And awes. “
Emily Dickinson
The Gorgeous Nothings
I love Emily Dickensian envelope poems and the book the gorgeous nothings.

You can never visit the same place twice. Each time, it's a different story. By the very act of coming back, you wipe out what came before.

"Your heart must be like the moon, so sad and alone.. forever to wander heaven with no home. Your heart needs to be caressed, arms to envelope your chest.. I would love to bear hug you, so your heart would be a little more like the sun and a little less lonely than the moon."
I wonder what it's like to wander the stars forever and never once have a soft hand touch you? It sounds sad, this is what the moon does but it is no less beautiful - eUë

In a Shopping Cart Going Downhill Very Fast
Creative projects all,
Each one of us, stories
Written in real time
Edits made in pencil
Terribly, wobbly wheels
