Anne Carson, from Glass, Irony and God

[Text ID: I felt as if the sky was torn off my life.]

[pleonastico]

june and a desire so vast it leaves you open like a wound / it teaches you a new language, one never spoken before / it actually inhabits your whole being, scraping at the rotten ceiling of your shell

[pleonastico]

to lie down in a field, naked and alone, where the grass tickles your skin – but you won't move, because that is where you belong. to let yourself be bothered by the insects that inhabit this place better than you do.

to reminisce about everything and, just, cry.

[pleonastico]

she was not in fact what she seemed, not a twin from your dreams

good morning, my strangest twin i've changed the locks and let the right one in i still hide, i still tumbleweed but lost see lost and i've been quiet screams

francesca, finalmente ci incontriamo

è andata più o meno così 🤍

[pleonastico]

• ascoltare emma nolde a vienna da sola mentre sgranocchio patatine, guardo il cielo e penso “andrà bene”

• assaggiare la sacher per la prima volta e sorridere perché alla fine avevo ragione io: alle ultime forchettate non ne potevo più

• sfogliare vinili ad alt & neu, comprare un cd come ricordo simbolico e sentire "come here" con le lacrime agli occhi

• ripensare a quando una persona anni fa mi scrisse come dedica su un taccuino "per chi ha l'oro di klimt negli occhi" e averlo ora di fronte

• possono accadere cose belle anche mentre ne stanno accadendo altre spiacevoli

[pleonastico]

• due ragazze si baciano all’aeroporto

• la potenza delle foto di francesca woodman dal vivo e dopo tanto dire “finalmente ci incontriamo”

• la scalinata senza tempo di before sunrise

• è successo – realizzare che è possibile smettere di pensarci e non sentirsi in colpa

• canticchiare “cardigan” in un negozietto di vestiti vintage

• riascoltare delle canzoni ed esorcizzarle facendo entrare il profumo nuovo di questa città

[pleonastico]

date idea: flee to vienna on a whim and wander the halls of the albertina museum together

D. A. Powell, from "Chronic"

[pleonastico]

gracie abrams, amelie // louise glück, the dream // lorde, what was that // daughter, isolation // florence + the machine, south london forever // annie ernaux, l’evento // birdy, lost it all

[pleonastico]

when taylor swift said: «there was nowhere for me to stay, but i stayed anyway» and when florence welch said: «i came for the pleasure, but i stayed, yes, i stayed for the pain»

art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you

[pleonastico]

we stood there – frozen in the moment of time where we were the most alive

[pleonastico]

borrowing words from places i’ve never been before
