Favourite Poem on Love:
My love is a hundred pitchers of honey.
Shiploads of thuya are what
my body wants to say to your body. Giraffes are this
desire in the dark. Perhaps the spiral Minoan script
is not language but a map. What we feel most has
no name but amber, archers, cinnamon, horses, and birds.
– Jack Gilbert from “Forgotten Dialects of the Heart”
