Into the forest I went walking—to get lost.

I saw faces in the knots
of trees, it was insane, and hands in branches, and everywhere names.

Throughout the elms
small birds shivered and sang in rhyme.

I wanted to be air, or wind —to be at ease in outer space but in the world this was the case:

Human was God's secret name.

- Fanny Howe

Another beloved poet has passed from the living, but leaves us this poignant reminder of how simple and fundamental what we ultimately cherish always is.

Fanny Howe

I won't be able to write from the grave 
so let me tell you what I love:
oil, vinegar, salt, lettuce, brown bread, butter, 
cheese and wine, a windy day, a fireplace, 
the children nearby, poems and songs, 
a friend sleeping in my bed —

and the short northern nights.

Vale #FannyHowe– here's something brilliant by her, in memory.

Fanny Howe’s writing changed my life - first with “Poem From A Single Pallet” and through many books, esp “The Winter Sun” - her mix of serious ethical commitment, a wild memory, and her sense of “The line’s ecstatic lash” made a serious impression. We’ve lost a great one. #fannyhowe

Somewhere by Fanny Howe Somewhere between Norway and Irelandvolcanic rocks and glaciers leap from the seaMy map has failed me, I’m there

There is nothing here

to love This seascape fits exactly with
the geography of my mind:
whatever is close is dangerous
— “Somewhere” by Fanny Howe

Rest in peace, Fanny Howe. She wrote like she always knew there was something to be frightened of, but in her poetry she never made it win. 🩶 #fannyhowe
