...Nothing is better than to live a storyless life that needs no writing for meaning --- when I am gone, let others say they lost a happy man, though no one can tell how happy I was.

As though touching her might make him known to himself, as though his hand moving over her body might find who he is, as though he lay inside her, a country his hand’s traveling uncovered, as though such a country arose continually up out of her to meet his hand’s setting forth and setting forth. And the places on her body have no names. And she is what’s immense about the night. And their clothes on the floor are arranged for forgetfulness.

this year       though your last tooth unpetals your daisy mouth       though you love him not you will find appetite enough       burrowing like a sand dollar       in your ocean of guts        invisible hunger enough       to swallow him whole then to let his hair       spill from your lips, strand       by sanguine strand and to smile        with this new face        this new, loud, revolting way       of meaning it

… and I want to tell you something, come close I want to whisper it, to pour the words burning into you, the same words for each one of you, listen, it’s simple, I’m saying it now, while I’m still sober, while I’m not about to weep bitterly into my own glass, while you’re still here — don’t go yet, stay, stay, give me your shoulder to lean against, steady me, don’t let me drop, I’m so in love with you I can’t stand up.

Someone writes to me: ‘In the evening of our life, we will be judged on love.’ Then condemnation is certain.
