Chamando de pensamento o que renova o pensamento

- Henri Meschonnic

life is under construction the scaffolding

does not complete the forgotten

moments so tiny

as the bits of air that

make up the sky we don’t see them

one by one since we are

inside

it’s when we block the sky with

our hand

that we age

all of a sudden

- henri meschonnic

I am a whirlwind

of meaning

I unravel

in what words

can no longer say

- Henri Meschonnic

Meschonnic / Saussure

por AR

a linguagem não diz o mundo

ela o faz passar

no corpo do discurso em curso

onde o sujeito se perde

e continua

 is a waiting room 

the sky is blue I am blue

 it’s raining I’m raining 

I drive silence into my words 

- Henri Meschonnic

in a world in which—imagine—you don’t

How to tell time from the body. I mean the difference between time and the body, the

- Chris Campanioni

oh god as in / there is no turning back 

oh god as in / I had no choice 

oh god as in / this was going to happen anyway 

- Emily Zogbi

The placeholder word for all the things we cannot name is God.

- Anne Champion

It’s one thing to have words.

And then there’s meaning.

- Anne Champion

It is possible to live a whole life

with a pain lodged in the throat

without the language

to cough it out.

- Anne Champion
