MISTAKE

For years I have seen dead animals on the highway   and grieved for them only to realize they are   not dead animals they are t shirts   or bits of blown tire and I have found   myself with this excess of grief   I have made with no object to let   it spill over and I have not known   where to put it or keep it and then today   I thought I know I can give it to you

With me, I can pretty quickly hear whether there is a thing that is alive inside the poem. But for me, if that thing that’s alive in some poems isn’t there, there’s nothing I can do to make it come forward, you know? Some poems have life, and some just don’t. Sometimes it’s an ostrich, and sometimes it’s a cinder block, and no matter what I do I can’t make a cinder block be an ostrich.

Most crying happens at night. People cry out of fatigue. But how horrible it is to hear someone say, “She's just tired!” Tired, yes, certainly, but just? There is nothing just about it.

Claudio Cargiolli (b.1952) - Lunare. 2019. Oil on canvas.

* * * *

The world itself, all I read, the people, the art, the weather I encounter, they all belong in a poem that I am not writing, a poem that contains me too, a poem that slowly reveals its generous and surprising connections. I think I cannot write that poem. I can only live in it. 

— Heather Christle, “Crying in the Library,” for Fugitive Leaves (via bostonpoetryslam)

Confusión - Heather Christle

Por años he visto animales muertos en la carretera

y me deprimo sólo para después darme cuenta

que no son animales muertos sino poleras

o trozos de neumáticos reventados y tengo que lidiar

con una pena tremenda

de la que me he llenado sin tener un objeto

en qué proyectarla y nunca he sabido

dónde ponerla o dónde guardarla

ahora creo que sé que te la puedo regalar
