Concerning My Neighbors, the Hittites
Great are the Hittites.
Their ears have mice and mice have holes.
Their dogs bury themselves and leave the bones
To guard the house. A single weed holds all their storms
Until the spiderwebs spread over the heavens.
There are bits of straw in their lakes and rivers
Looking for drowned men. When a camel won’t pass
Through the eye of one of their needles,
They tie a house to its tail. Great are the Hittites.
Their fathers are in cradles, their newborn make war.
To them lead floats, a leaf sinks. Their god is the size
Of a mustard seed so that he can be quickly eaten.
They also piss against the wind,
Pour water in a leaky bucket.
Strike two tears to make fire,
And have tongues with bones in them,
Bones of a wolf gnawed by lambs.
*
They are also called mound builders,
They are called Asiatic horses
That will drink on the Rhine, they are called
My grandmother’s fortune-telling, they are called
You can’t take it to the grave with you.
It’s that hum in your left ear,
A sigh coming from deep within you,
A dream in which you keep falling forever,
The hour in which you sit up in bed
As though someone has shouted your name.
No one knows why the Hittites exist,
Still, when two are whispering
One of them is listening.
Did they catch the falling knife?
They caught it like a fly with closed mouths.
Did they balance the last egg?
They struck the egg with a bone so it won’t howl.
Did they wait for dead man’s shoes?
The shoes went in at one ear and out the other.
Did they wipe the blood from their mousetraps?
They burnt the blood to warm themselves.
Are they cold with no pockets in their shrouds?
If the sky falls, they shall have clouds for supper.
What do they have for us
To put in our pipes and smoke?
They have the braid of a beautiful girl
That drew a team of cattle
And the engraving of him who slept
With dogs and rose with fleas
Searching for its trace in the sky.
*
And so there are fewer and fewer of them now.
Who wrote their name on paper
And burnt the paper? Who put snake bones
In their pillows? Who threw nail parings
In their soup? Who made them walk
Under the ladder? Who stuck pins
In their snapshots?
The wart of warts and his brother evil eye.
Bone-lazy and her sister rabbit’s-foot.
Cross-your-fingers and their father dog star.
Knock-on-wood and his mother hellfire.
Because the tail can’t wag the cow.
Because the woods can’t fly to the dove.
Because the stones haven’t said their last word.
Because dunghills rise and empires fall.
*
They are leaving behind
All the silver spoons
Found inside their throats at birth,
A hand they bit because it fed them,
Two rats from a ship that is still sinking,
A collection of various split hairs,
The leaf they turned over too late.
*
All that salt cast over the shoulder,
All that bloody meat traveling under the saddles of nomads ...
Here comes a forest in wolf’s clothing,
The wise hen bows to the umbrella.
When the bloodshot evening meets the bloodshot night,
They tell each other bloodshot tales.
That bare branch over them speaks louder than words.
The moon is worn threadbare.
I repeat: lean days don’t come singly,
It takes all kinds to make the sun rise.
The night is each man’s castle.
Don’t let the castle out of the bag.
Wind in the valley, wind in the high hills,
Practice will make this body fit this bed.
*
May all roads lead
Out of a sow’s ear
To what’s worth
Two in the bush.

9368 Simić Vuk Simić Vakanović oko 1919. (14.I.1895-1973) i Marija Maša Simić (rođ. Miletić) (rođ. 5.VIII.1896) rastavljeni 16.VI.1921.
"DR VUK SIMIĆ-VAKANOVIĆ 1895-1973 Nagla nenadana smrt oduzela nam je dugogodišnjeg neumornog i požrtvovnog suradnika Muzejskog dokumentacionog centra Dr Vuka Simića-Vakanovića. Smrt ovog marljivog i svestrano plodnog kulturnog radnika popraćena je nekrolozima u gotovo svim našim dnevnicima i časopisima u kojima je,bio i aktivni suradnik. Zasluga Dr Simića i njegov doprinos iscrpno je registrirala sva naša dnevna štampa. Muzejska služba gubi sa Dr Simićem zaslužnog muzejskog radnika. Kao osnivač, prvi i dugogodišnji direktor Poštanskog muzeja u Zagrebu dao je koncepciju ovog muzeja, postavio organizaciju i sakupio bogate zbirke i dokumentaciju za ovaj muzej. Izložbe Poštanskog muzeja pratile su sva suvremena zbivanja i sve značajnije događaje. U tome je pokojni Dr Simić dao jedan značajni prilog muzeološkoj problematici i tematici naših muzejskih izložaba. Ovu aktivnost sa prigodnim tematskim izložbama marljivo je nastavio Dr Simić i nakon odlaska u penziju. Muzejski dokumentacioni centar zahvaljuje Dr Simiću bogatu dokumentaciju o radu i djelovanju muzejskih ustanova iz gotovo cjelokupne dnevne i periodične štampe u Jugoslaviji. Ovu dokumentaciju ustupao je Dr Simić MDC-u redovno kroz niz godina bez bilo kakove naknade. Ova dokumentacija bila je bogati izvor informacija o radu naših muzeja za Bilten MDC-a Informatica museologica. U znak priznanja Dr Simiću za plodnu suradnju, u MDG-u i za njegove neprolazne zasluge na unapređenju naše muzejske službe ustupio je MDC Dr Simiću još 1970 godine srebrnu spomen-medalju MDC-a, rad kipara Ivana Jegera. Zahvaljujemo Dr Vuku Simiću-Vakanoviću.
Kolektiv MDC-a ."

Last night, at a favorite "tourist attraction" by the sea in neighboring RI, this was our centerpiece and is . . .
Dedicated to two very different dads.
ironically, both "dads" were carpenters, whose hands were their world.
"Inside my empty bottle I was constructing a lighthouse
while all the others were making ships." ~ Charles Simic ~
MINOTS LEDGE POEM
Like spectral hounds across the sky
The white clouds scud before the storm
And naked in the howling night
The red-eyed lighthouse lifts its form.
The waves with slippery fingers clutch
The massive tower, and climb and fall,
And, muttering, growl with baffled rage
Their curses on the sturdy wall.
Up in the lonely tower he sits,
The keeper of the crimson light-
Silent and awestruck does he hear
The imprecations of the night.
The white spray beats against the panes
Like some wet ghost that down the air
Is hunted by a troop of fiends,
And seeks a shelter any where.

There is so much symbolism in lighthouses.
and . . . many memories.
As a young teen, my dad actually spent time in Minot's Ledge Light, where flashing 1~4~3 meant, I LOVE YOU. In Dad's final years with Alzheimer's, the last words he scratched to me (in the way of symbols) in his "Minot's" journal were . .... ...

Hotel Insonnia
I liked my little hole,
Its window facing a brick wall.
Next door there was a piano.
A few evenings a month
A crippled old man came to play
« My Blue Heaven ».
Mostly, though, it was quiet.
Each room with its spider in heavy overcoat
Catching his fly with a web
Of cigarette smoke and revery.
So dark,
I could not see my face in the shaving mirror.
At 5 A.M. the sound of bare feet upstairs.
The « Gypsy » fortuneteller,
Whose storefront is on the corner,
Going to pee after a night of love.
Once, too, the sound of a child sobbing.
So near it was, I thought
For a moment, I was sobbing myself.

“Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.”

Didn't see any "wanted" signs at the quilt show today, nor any basket cases,
but feasted on the wonderful array of colorful expressions which were certainly poetic in nature.
Inside my empty bottle I was constructing a lighthouse while all the others were making ships.

Stone
Go inside a stone
That would be my way.
Let somebody else become a dove
Or gnash with a tiger’s tooth.
I am happy to be a stone.
From the outside the stone is a riddle:
No one knows how to answer it.
Yet within, it must be cool and quiet
Even though a cow steps on it full weight,
Even though a child throws it in a river;
The stone sinks, slow, unperturbed
To the river bottom
Where the fishes come to knock on it
And listen.
I have seen sparks fly out
When two stones are rubbed,
So perhaps it is not dark inside after all;
Perhaps there is a moon shining
From somewhere, as though behind a hill —
Just enough light to make out
The strange writings, the star-charts
On the inner walls.

Charles Simic
...
Because I am the bullet
That has baptized each one of your senses,
Poems are made of our lusty wedding nights...
The joy of words as they are written.
The ear that got up at four in the morning
To hear the grass grow inside a word.
Still, the most beautiful riddle has no answer.
I am the emptiness that tucks you in like a
mockingbird's nest,
The fingernail that scratched on your sleep's
blackboard.
Take a letter: From cloud to onion.
Say: There was never any real choice.
One gaunt shadowy mother wiped our asses,
The same old orphanage taught us loneliness.
Street-organ full of blue notes,
I am the monkey dancing to your grinding--
And still you are afraid-and so,
It's as if we had not budged from the beginning.
Time slopes. We are falling head over heels
At the speed of night. That milk tooth
You left under the pillow, it's grinning.
~Charles Simic
