  • Pablo Neruda - Melancholy Inside Families
    My coffee already turned cold and I say thank you.
    My body can't handle much more and I say thank you.
    My stomach hurts and I say thank you.
    People I didn't expect to hear from reach out and I say thank you.
    I am uncomfortable and I say thank you.
    I will be with my 4-person family and nobody else for Thanksgiving for the first time maybe ever, and I am saying thank you.
    I will crochet on the plane and I am saying thank you with every stitch and every incorrect move.
    I will have an aisle seat and I say thank you.
    Even as every passenger's crotch passes my line of sight on their way to the bathroom, I will say thank you thank you thank you. I didn't want to see your crotch, but thank you.

  • Eileen Myles - Harmonica
    “Literature is love. I think it went like this: drawings in the cave, sounds in the cave, songs in the cave, songs about us. Later, stories about us. Part of what we always did was have sex and fight about it and break each other’s hearts. I guess there’s other kinds of love too. Great friendships. Working together. But poetry and novels are lists of our devotions. We love the feel of making the marks as the feelings are rising and falling. Living in literature and love is the best thing there is. You’re always home.” -Eileen Myles
