No, I don't mean love, when I say patriotism. I mean fear. The fear of the other. And its expressions are political, not poetical: hate, rivalry, aggression. It grows in us, that fear. It grows in us year by year. We've followed our road too far.

—Ursula K. Leguin, The Left Hand of Darkness

“If you have no way to mark the hours, no variance in the days, time will open its mouth and swallow you.”

—

Laura van den Berg (b. 1983) American writer

“this is not the place your life begins or ends. / it is where cranes teach their colts to fear / what does not fly, where hornets feed / on fallen pears while you watch a swallowtail / test its new wings over the berm, / unused to its second life. you are unharmed / but not safe.”

— traci brimhall, “diaspora,” our lady of the ruins

i’m not sure i’m capable of being loved right now / i feel safe in my quiet way of living and telling my secrets to thread & paper / i don’t know what i’d say if you asked me to know myself / more
