Yves Bonnefoy, tr. Marc Elihu Hofstadter, from “Dream has Laid its Painted Silks,” wr. c.1955
(via avoidantgarde)
I joke that my body is
its own separate entity, that it’s
me and my body. But it’s you and me
and my body, and
too much of the time,
you and my body alone, and
god knows where I’ve disappeared to.— Lauren Bender, from “Searching,” published in Francis House
