In this mid-sixties documentary, two teenagers mull over how they want to live, how society is ordered and whether you can truly be free.

No presenter, no voice-over, no words but their own.

Clip taken from The Long Journey, originally broadcast on BBC One, 7 April, 1964.

«... pues los pobres
dan en creer en la milagrería,
en que unas gentes vendrán a salvarles
en un tren como aquellos que pasaban;
dan en creer los pobres esas cosas
cuando son niños, siempre trabajando
y sin salir del pueblo para nada.»

Only the children are left, alone, growing old.»

This is an essay on my poem "Ballad," Keats's notion of Negative Capability, and Lorca's Duende, with a prompt and a link to the original poem. I'm happy to share it with you.

Christ was laid out in a glass coffin, like Snow White. I visited and re-visited him. He looked so much like my father on his deathbed.
