“A free heart within a caged chest is free.” #poetry
Poem by Fady Joudah with reads: “2. Your liver is on fire. It's not because of drink that your liver is on fire. Your soul is in your enemy's fist, and he won't release it. Deep inside the captivity, a parched partridge rests in your heart. Now and again she remem- bers a brook, flaps her wings, kicks off with her legs, claws. A free heart within a caged chest is free.”

Poem excerpt by Fady Joudah which says, “Why the hurry?” they asked, “and to whom do you think your wounds would be criteria in a democracy of loneliness worse than death?”

I should finish something.
A screenshot from the StoryGraph app that shows that I’m currently reading nine different books (and a 39-day streak).

Really moved by Paul Stephenson’s Hard Drive, an exploration of grief told chronologically from the moment he learned of his husband’s death. #poetry

From “Signature”:
Screenshot from poem “Signature” by Paul Stephenson. The quoted excerpt reads: “Or else he’s understood, once and for all, what us lot don’t that this here is one massive joke, some lame farce from the beginning. I wouldn’t be surprised, because he has, because he had, his own sense of humour, black, in the mishaps and embarrassment saw the human comedy, relishing the doddering and stumbling of others, their sticky situations, how they keep on talking, talking, words making it worse, digging a hole for themselves. I look at his mouth and he’s not saying much but keeping shtum, lips sealed, mum’s the word. And I am positive, one hundred per cent, that he won’t tell me what is tickling him, not this time.”
