lifebythedropAnyone want to live in Austin, Tx from June 16th to August 18th? I just lost my housesitter, which is not so bad, really, except I have a dog and two cats who expect to be able to sleep with people.
Let me know.
In other news, I laid the groundwork for a month of poetry and Othello today, and the kids...they're mostly fucking buying it. It makes me pleased in a way that I know I will miss when I am not teaching next year.
Poetry spam of the day:
What was said to the rose that made it open
was said to me here in my chest.
What was told the Cypress that made it strong
and straight, what was
whispered the jasmine so it is what it is, whatever made
sugarcane sweet, whatever
was said to the inhabitants of the town of Chigil in
Turkestan that makes them
so handsome, whatever lets the pomegranate flower blush
like a human face, that is
being said to me now. I blush. Whatever put eloquence in
language, that's happening here.
The great warehouse doors open; I fill with gratitude,
chewing a piece of sugarcane,
in love with the one to whom every that belongs!
