I'm in love with my future

Be patient and tough; someday this pain will be useful to you.

My Future by Andrew Onorato, 2020
como quem vem dum cruel lugar incontinente unifico todos os gritos de lá
- abreu paxe
O silêncio diz - esquece.

Só tu continuas, sem desgaste.

here I am lost in love me land

it may seem to you that I'm acting confused

Los árboles se han cerrado.
El agua se ha cerrado.
El rocío se ha cerrado.
El cielo
inmensamente cerrado.

I close my eyes and see
a seagull in the desert,
high, against unbearably blue sky.

There is hope in the past.

I'm writing to you
all the time, I am writing 

with both hands,
day and night.

- Franz Wright
Some say
the more you stray
the more you're saved,

I wouldn't be surprised

Franz Wright

Long nights, short years. Forgiving
silence

When morning comes, and pain–

no one is a stranger, this whole world is your home.
you'll remember me somehow
though you don't need me now


Where have I been, can I say for certain?
Where have I been?

- Campbell McGrath
Things age and, when old
enough, no longer able to resist,
become animate. Unable to stay
free of life.

I must remove all this:
evening chill, an impression of transparency, your
presence–remove it all, without
letting anything go.

- Keith Waldrop
my silence nestles into you
- paul celan
I can still see you: an echo
- Paul Celan
