You and I
Are a strange
Asterism,
The ancient
Temple built
To honor it,
The consummated
Marriage of
Heaven and
Earth

Fragment

Break, break, break,
On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!
And I would that my tongue could utter
The thoughts that arise in me.
O, well for the sailor lad,
That he sings in his boat on the bay!

"felt like a dream but wasn’t. felt like stepping into a history
that lead to my own but i don’t know enough about it to say."

Wanting for the
world to eschew those
opinions that I disown,

yet I subscribe privately
to their empiricism
with tomorrow’s vigor.

Everyone is fucking looking.

Ignominy tilts
my eyes down.

I can’t watch.

Well, this turned out to be one of the most devastating books I’ve ever read. ‘Song of Stars’ by Guus Luijters, trans. Marian de Vooght, is a beautifully written attempt to recuperate the memory of a Jewish girl from the Netherlands, murdered by the Nazis.
