Story-wise, I do not want Dazai to just show up and save the day again

Emotionally though, I want Dazai to show up and beat the shit of Fyodor for what he just pulled with Atsushi

Winter in poems ❄️

"In a fall of snow, the first of the season, they stand and dream and watch the footprints disappear in the will of heaven; absorb the sounds of water-objects drown in a deeper music, and shiver as light breaks in their hearts and something vastly woeful hangs at their eyes." – Arthur Gregor, "First Snow, Brooklyn Harbor"

It's snowing at JSTOR HQ! Curl up with a blanket and a warm beverage, because we're sharing 10 poems with you that capture the spirit of winter. This season is approached distinctly by each poet, some taking a pensive tone and others leaning into seasonal cheer.

We hope these poems inspire you to create some winter art of your own!

Flower

by Alexander Pushkin tr. Andrey Kneller

A withered flower lies forgotten Inside a book, before my eyes: My soul awakes, all of the sudden, And I begin to fantasize:

Where did it grow? Among which plants? How long ago? And picked by whom, By foreign or familiar hands? Did it already start to bloom?

Placed here in tribute to a date, Or to a fateful separation? Or to a stroll under the shade, Alone, without a destination?

Is he or she alive today? Where did they find their hidden nook? Or did they also fade away, Just like this flower in the book?

Sheridan Le Fanu, 1872, Carmilla
