Maybe one day someone will love you as much as I do and perhaps they’ll be lucky enough that you love them too.

“I feel lonely. I feel worse - strange. And when I leave I cry in the car. And I say to myself that the trouble with life is that people are strangers. Anne…people are strangers. I don’t know if I can go on spilling myself out to people - those strange strangers. As I may have said, I am not at home in myself. I seem to be a ship that is sailing out of my own life.”

- Anne Sexton, from a letter to Anne Clarke dated 23 March 1964. (via violentwavesofemotion)

"For a while” is a phrase whose length can’t be measured. At least by the person who’s waiting."

—Lisel Mueller, Poetry, October 1987

In the introduction to Poetry’s centennial anthology editor Christian Wiman offers Mueller’s poem as an answer to why one writes poetry:

Stunned by the death of her mother, the speaker of this poem—an adolescent presumably, though the age is not specified—wanders out to the “lovingly planted garden” where the “day lilies were as deaf/as the ears of drunken sleepers/and the roses curved inward.”

Implicit in [the poem’s] last line is an assumption that language is a living thing, with a kind of consciousness, that it returns or reciprocates the attention that is turned toward it.

Join us tonight to celebrate 100 years of Poetry!

“Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person’s face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground under the street, and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing.”

- Miranda July (via learningfromthehands)
