“Inside my empty bottle I was constructing a lighthouse

while all the others were making ships.”

~ Charles Simic ~

I love to stay in bed

All morning,

Covers thrown off,

Eyes closed, listening.

 

Outside they are opening

Their primers

In the little school

Of the corn field.

 

There's a smell of damp hay,

Of horses, laziness,

Summer sky and eternal life.

 

I know all the dark places

Where the sun hasn't reached yet,

Where the last cricket

Has just hushed; anthills

Where it sounds like it's raining;

Slumbering spiders spinning wedding dresses.

 

I pass over the farmhouses

Where the little mouths open to suck,

Barnyards where a man, naked to the waist,

Washes his face and shoulders with a hose,

Where the dishes begin to rattle in the kitchen.

 

The good tree with its voice

Of a mountain stream

Knows my steps.

It, too, hushes.

 

I stop and listen:

Somewhere close by

A stone cracks a knuckle,

Another rolls over in its sleep.

 

I hear a butterfly stirring

Inside a caterpillar,

I hear the dust talking

Of last night's storm.

 

Further ahead, someone

Even more silent

Passes over the grass

Without bending it.

 

And all of a sudden!

In the midst of that quiet,

It seems possible

To live simply on this earth.

 

--Charles Simic

I think this is Ana Simic in the high jump, but it's hard to be sure; there were three competitors who looked quite similar and wore exactly the same kit.

Tenho de estar completamente só quando penso,

E no parapeito mais alto

Debruçado sobre a rua vazia.

A janela poeirenta da loja lá em baixo

Está cheia de fantasmas ao pôr do sol.

 

Ali vai o meu velho. Já tem a idade que tenho agora.

De olhos fechados

chama as criadas pelos seus nomes secretos:

Sto. Isaac, o sírio,

Sto. Nilo, que escreveu sobre a oração.

O vinho das ambiguidades eternas,

Se faz favor, à saúde do corvo

Sentado no cimo de uma igreja branca.

 

A sua vida também é um emaranhado fantástico.

Os nossos infortúnios são empreiteiros.

Esquecem-se sempre das janelas,

Fazem os tectos baixos e pesados.

«É só uma lua de papel», cantam...

Mas estou a ir demasiado depressa.

 

No fim de um corredor escuro

Há um fósforo aceso numa mão trémula.

«Ainda tenho pavor do palco»,

Diz a bela mulher,

E depois guia-nos por entre guarda-roupas

Com espelhos e portas empenadas,

Onde estão pendurados vestidos sussurrantes,

Espartilhos sussurrantes, sapatos com botões -

Do tipo que se usaria para cavalgar uma cabra.

 

A sua filha, dizem-nos, está tísica.

Há uma marca do polegar oleoso da morte

na sua face angélica:

Ela quer que eu brinque debaixo da mesa

Dos jogadores de cartas silenciosos.

 

Brincamos e é como o palácio em Cnossos.

A memória, o único fósforo queimado do meu coração:

A sua mão guiando-me nas ruínas,

E as cartas sussurrando sobre as nossas cabeças

Que a nossa juventude e o nosso amor aturdiram.

“The workings of the human heart are the profoundest mystery of the universe. One moment they make us despair of our kind, and the next we see in them the reflection of the divine image.” ~ Charles W. Chesnutt ~

 

“He lives in you. He lives in me. He watches over everything we see. Into the water. Into the truth. In your reflection. He lives in you.” ~ anon ~

TAPESTRY

 

It hangs from heaven to earth.

There are trees in it, cities, rivers,

small pigs and moons. In one corner

the snow falling over a charging cavalry,

in another women are planting rice.

 

You can also see:

a chicken carried off by a fox,

a naked couple on their wedding night,

a column of smoke,

an evil-eyed woman spitting into a pail of milk.

 

What is behind it?

- Space, plenty of empty space.

 

And who is talking now?

- A man asleep under his hat.

 

What happens when he wakes up?

- He'll go into de barbershop.

They'll shave his beard, nose, ears and hair,

To make him look like everyone else.

by Charles Simic

 

They’re waiting to be murdered,

Or evicted. Soon

They expect to have nothing to eat.

In the meantime, they sit.

 

A violent pain is coming, they think.

It will start in the heart

And climb into the mouth.

They’ll be carried off in stretchers, howling.

 

Tonight they watch the window

Without exchanging a word.

It has rained, and now it looks

Like it’s going to snow a little.

 

I see him get up to lower the shades.

If their window stays dark,

I know his hand has reached hers

Just as she was about to turn on the lights.

Miramare Castle (Italian: Castello di Miramare; Slovene: Grad Miramar; German: Schloss Miramar; Spanish: Castillo de Miramar) is a 19th-century castle direct on the Gulf of Trieste between Barcola and Grignano in Trieste, northeastern Italy. It was built from 1856 to 1860 for Austrian Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian and his wife, Charlotte of Belgium, later Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico and Empress Carlota of Mexico, based on a design by Carl Junker.

 

The castle's grounds include an extensive cliff and seashore park of 22 hectares (54 acres) designed by the archduke. The grounds were completely re-landscaped to feature numerous tropical species of trees and plants.

I believe in the soul; so far

It hasn't made much difference.

I remember an afternoon in Sicily.

The ruins of some temple.

Columns fallen in the grass like naked lovers.

 

The olives and goat cheese tasted delicious

And so did the wine

With which I toasted the coming night,

The darting swallows,

The Saracen wind and moon.

 

It got darker. There was something

Long before there were words:

The evening meal of shepherds . . .

A fleeting whiteness among the trees . . .

Eternity eavesdropping on time.

 

The goddess going to bathe in the sea.

She must not be followed.

These rocks, these cypress trees,

May be her old lovers.

Oh to be one of them, the wine whispered to me.

[The Shulamite to Her Beloved]

"Set me as a seal upon your heart,

As a seal upon your arm;

For love is as strong as death,

Jealousy as cruel as the grave;

Its flames are flames of fire,

A most vehement flame."

Songs 8:6

 

"And we have known and believed the love that God has for us.

God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

1John 4:16

 

For our God is a consuming fire."

Hebrews 12:29

 

'So he answered and said, "'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind,' and 'your neighbor as yourself.' "

Luke 10:27

Errata

  

Where it says snow

read teeth-marks of a virgin

Where it says knife read

you passed through my bones

like a police-whistle

Where it says table read horse

Where it says horse read my migrant's bundle

Apples are to remain apples

Each time a hat appears

think of Isaac Newton

reading the Old Testament

Remove all periods

They are scars made by words

I couldn't bring myself to say

Put a finger over each sunrise

it will blind you otherwise

That damn ant is still stirring

Will there be time left to list

all errors to replace

all hands guns owls plates

all cigars ponds woods and reach

that beer-bottle my greatest mistake

the word I allowed to be written

when I should have shouted

her name
