Reading The Threepenny Review

Back in the woods again


i like reading memoir

stepping into another life

more heartfelt than my own

because when it's too much

i can put down The Review

and be back in the woods again

under yet-bare crowns with the wind

the April wind and with memory

that cut like knives

the wind without blood

because the wind is pure and heartless.






—after Adam Zagajewski
