29 July, 2006 so much has passed in the past week or so that is still impacted in my skull, still waiting for a way to be translated, someone else's words are going to have to mark this spot until they find a way out. i'm not talking about personal cataclysm, here. though there was for one person, who won't be coming back. no... there are other, more mundane and peculiar and comical things. but having just watched an older film that i thought i was going to be annoyed with, on this boring and humid night (Truly, Madly Deeply), this poem by Pablo Neruda was paraphrased, and i had to go seek out the rest of it... ...and it bears repeating... because it speaks for a lot of souls on this hot night.
If suddenly you do not exist, I do not dare, I shall live on. For where a man has no voice, Where blacks are beaten, When victory, No, forgive me. |
