#without end

[gennsoup]

Adam Zagajewski, Autumn

God, give us a long winter and quiet music, and patient mouths, and a little pride -- before our age ends. Give us astonishment and a flame, high, bright.

— Adam Zagajewski, from "Frame" in "Without End: New and Selected Poems". (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Feb 10, 2002) (via Last Tambourine)

Without End

There is no final poem, just as there was no original poem, and if there was a tree that held a knowledge of good and evil then we have done nothing with that knowledge, moving back and forth between the two, perplexed as sparrows in a storm batting their small heads against windows they don't see. The poem is betwixt and beyond, within and out, not the apple eaten, but the planets themselves the apple and core, and we the hungry, open, O---

I've seen sunflowers dangling their heads at dusk, as if a careless hangman had gone strolling through the gardens. September's sweet dust gathered on the windowsill and lizards hid in the bends of walls. I've taken long walks, craving one thing only: lightning, transformation, you.

God, give us a long winter and quiet music, and patient mouths, and a little pride—before our age ends. Give us astonishment and a flame, high, bright.

She remade her, she held her bones in her hands and put each piece back together. Only to have to carry on without her.
