tumbleword skip to main skip to sidebar tumbleword monday may 12 2014 from annie dillard i am a frayed and nibbled survivor in a fallen world and i am getting along i am aging and eaten and have done my share of eating too i am not washed and beautiful in control of a shining world in which everything fits but instead am wandering awed about on a splintered wreck i ve come to care for whose gnawed trees breathe a delicate air and whose bloodied and scarred creatures are my dearest companions and whose beauty beats and shines not in its imperfections but overwhelmingly in spite of them under the wind rent clouds upstream and down simone weil says let us love the country of here below it is real this blog is a place like a plot of land i have been away long neglecting here while tending a there what better thought to plant here now or anywhere simply love seize the day the night indulge your health peace to all who enter here 9 comments sunday march 17 2013 because t rul y being here is so muc h because everything here apparently needs us this fleeting world which in some strange way keeps calling to us us the most fleeting of all once for each thing just once no more and we too just once and never again but to have been this once completely even if only once to have been at one with the earth seems beyond undoing and so we keep pressing on trying to achieve it trying to hold it firmly in our simple hands in our overcrowded gaze in our speechless heart trying to become it whom can we give it to we would hold on to it all forever ah but what can we take along into that other realm not the art of looking which is learned so slowly and nothing that happened here nothing perhaps we are here in order to say house bridge fountain gate pitcher fruit tree window but to say them you must understand oh to say them more intensely than the things themselves ever dreamed of existing here is the time for the sayable here is its homeland speak and bear witness more than ever look i am living on what neither childhood nor future grows any smaller superabundant being wells up in my heart rilke from the ninth elegy steven mitchell trans point and shoot north carolina march 2013 on this day i felt a surreal sense of timelessness everything seemed lit even though it was all wet and grey i should have been gloomy maybe it was the wonderful food we got in the city the night before or maybe the color and rhythm danced me awake sometimes the mind in a state of semi exhaustion finds something of spirit and runs on ahead loose and unafraid across the fields of our gaze it feels like inner flight you understand i hope you are all well no te to self anne carson nyt peace to all who enter here 18 comments labels anne carson mansuetude photography poetry rilke steven

1 here 2 3 freshly stolen from the paris review tumblr post today beautiful profound intense and a scrambling to logical mind be prepared kafka s translated text many interpretations the child is like a little hill of silence on this little hill of silence suddenly the word appears the language of the child is silence transformed into sound the language of the adult is sound that seeks for silence children the little hills of silence are scattered about everywhere in the world of words reminding men of the origin of speech max picard from the world of silence can i still wish you all a happy

within the without flows between any boundaries made earth time a heat a sustenance family and change hop on the blur it moves quickly but remains essentially feathered season by season stillness flight it grazes together on blooms of light etched to remember rock long stacked by hands old souls we come from all over tangled rooted given the name a john quested what did he grasp hand shaped world our marks fade simply quietly an elegance emerges leaning each to each as we one angel frowns since june 17 1783 primitive the mouth the eyes all is spiral and eternal these hours these mirages of color the eye drinks here where silence leans on itself here the majesty within us sight smell touch stitched to all the emotions of a life i wish peace to all who enter here and these last lines from pablo neruda s poem the gift i want all the hands of mankind to knead mountains of bread gather all fish in the sea all the fruit of the olive all the love still unawakened and leave gifts in the

dove born a small while in this coat of thieves a friend sat on a bench near the sea to eat lunch a different woman walked past smoking a cigarette reaching the boardwalk she flicked her cigarette up

seagull monday june 18 2012 immensity taps at your life tree it is foolish to let a young redwood grow next to a house even in this one lifetime you will have to choose that great calm being this clutter of soup pots and books already the first branch tips brush at the window softly calmly immensity taps at your life jane hirshfield st helena s island south carolina low country the chapel was built in 1740 so the local white workers didn t have to travel into beaufort for service slaves worked the farm land until after the civil war when an experimental the penn school was set up to educate the freed africans or gullah a friend told of poisonous snakes gliding silently off of tree limbs while paddling the local waters in sandals and a summer dress i kept an eye out and wished rubber boots to protect my toes at first layers and levels of looking up into a new kind of atmosphere the walls more white in life made of local oyster shell lime and local sand over scaffolding a construction called tabby slaves probably slurped these wet and salty the water though surrounded by marshy savannah grass inlets must have been so clean of pollution in 1740 the small children s cemetery wall self planted a fern atop its tabby or maybe the ghosts planted it is time a ghost decaying a soldier s crypt the door s absence seems a ghost legend from the first days of burial i didn t get too close imagined voodoo dolls in the old iron work loops of rusty thread the light meter had trouble calculating so much dappled info the silence here the layered branches draped with moss gave sense of an even greater chapel roof stretched over everything below me and my littleness i could feel my heart beat listening for all the lives that had lived on this island died here slaves lay buried in unmarked graves war had entered here voices of love and hate worship song an end of slavery babies cried hurricanes droughts and a forest fire in 1886 took the roof of this bone white chapel shell of oyster shells the year 1740 seemed to reach through me with all its 270 years since in a moment it felt i small flesh i was the one crumbling and an oyster shell suddenly seemed strong wisdom respectable ancient bone of my bone the sea incarnate immortal compared to me yes the light was watching through everything breathing through the moss offering itself as living luminous prayer among
