it’s crazy how there will never be anyone in theater who ever comes close to brushing the undisputed greatness of stephen sondheim. he will always be peerless.

Everything
You came one day and
as usual in such matters
significance filled everything—
your eyes, the things you
knew, the way you turned,
leaned, stood, or sat,
this way or that: when
you left, the area around here rose
a tilted tide, and everything that
offers desolation drained away.
-A. R. Ammons
*This poem was found after the poet’s death on the back of an envelope from Helen Vendler, November 28, 1981.

“It is, often enough, only by seeing in a poem the choice that was not made that we understand the choice that has been made. The ‘erasures’ that lie under the printed line are often deducible from previous poems or later ones, or from a parent poem in the tradition, or from the formula of common speech that is being avoided.”
— Helen Vendler, The Odes of John Keats

“reify” is the funniest word to me. a prefix and a suffix doesn’t need a base word to be in a loving and fulfilling relationship
