Devonian
Carolyn Oliver

In another life I am a fossil slick of agate,
once honeycomb coral, clustered. Crushed 
in pressure’s fist, I ache for your chisel’s kiss, 
I crave the sting of your hog-bristle brush.
Some men learn 
to be ghosts before they ever
learn to die.

When the Eyes open, finally, 
they won’t yield
to touch.

I am obsessed with myself. Like 
a planet, I long for something I can’t 
slip off at night and forget to wear 
in the morning. I want to make it all wuthering, 
whatever that means.

O autêntico sabe que jamais
chegará ao prêmio Nobel.
O medíocre se acredita sempre perto dele.

Time
is more beautiful than money. 
Patience is more beautiful 
than achievement.

I declutter my heart
I make no solace of life or the taking of life.
Only of this pause, waiting for thunder during rain.
