Tired, Langston Hughes

[metamorphesque]

It felt like the world had divided into two different types of people, those who had felt pain and those who had yet to.

― Michelle Zauner, Crying in H Mart

[funeral]

In an individual well adjusted to his environment and his own inner life, the persona is merely a supple protective coating that makes for easy, natural relations with the outside world. But under certain circumstances it becomes too convenient to hide one's real nature behind the covering; the persona becomes mechanical. This has its dangers; the mask freezes and behind it the individual wastes away.

Jolande Jacobi, The Psychology of C.G. Jung

“You are like me, whether or not you admit it. Unsatisfied, meticulous. And your hunger is not for experience but for understanding, as though it could be had in the abstract.”

— Louise Glück, from Moonbeam in “Poems 1962-2012″ (via adrasteiax)

Seaside Improvisation - Richard Siken

Seaside Improvisation by Richard Siken

I take off my hands and I give them to you but you don’t     want them, so I take them back   and put them on the wrong way, the wrong wrists. The yard is dark, the tomatoes are next to the whitewashed wall,     the book on the table is about Spain,       the windows are painted shut. Tonight you’re thinking of cities under crowns    of snow and I stare at you like I’m looking through a window,        counting birds.     You wanted happiness, I can’t blame you for that, and maybe a mouth sounds idiotic when it blathers on about joy     but tell me you love this, tell me you’re not miserable.       You do the math, you expect the trouble.          The seaside town. The electric fence. Draw a circle with a piece of chalk. Imagine standing in a constant cone       of light. Imagine surrender. Imagine being useless. A stone on the path means the tea’s not ready,     a stone in the hand means somebody’s angry, the stone inside you still hasn’t hit bottom.
