β€œIt may last for a minute, a night, or a month, but, this i promise you, GarcΓ­a Lorca, the loneliness returns. The poet encysts the intruder. The objects come back to their own places, silent and unsmiling. I again begin to write you a letter on the sound of a poem.”

Jack Spicer, from After Lorca

THE WINTER LIGHT

We see light but we live in the cold and the dark
β€”winters anyway. We are aware
that that isn’t all that there is. We wouldn’t have
it otherwise. How should we not know
and be alive, not be deprived? I saw
this afternoon the whiteness under the dark
clouds and rejoiced that we know the light as much
and even more from gone than when it is there.
