November again. The trees are revealing their structures. There’s a catch of fire in the air. All the souls are out marauding. But there are roses, there are still roses. In the damp and the cold, on a bush that looks done, there’s a wide-open rose, still. Look at the colour of it.

A. Smith, Autumn

*Novembers are for softest sleep when skies are dark and grey. They do not mind the time you keep when night looks much like day. They do not mind the rain that falls so warmly down your cheek. ‘Rest easy now’ is what they’d say if months knew how to speak.*

*...the thing with October is, I think, it somehow gets in your very blood. Unapologetically. Almost ruthlessly.

~Anne Sexton, from A Self-Portrait In Letters

*No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within. Whatever walked there, walked alone.*

*Whenever you are fed up with life, start writing: ink is the great cure for all human ills, as I have found out long ago.*

Important bookstore visits. Even the rain can't stop us.

Ok friends, listen up. We all do it. Every year we wait 9 months for fall. We daydream of long walks in crunching leaves, hot chocolate, warm sweaters and orange sunsets bringing a chill to the air. And every year the season flies by and we miss it. This year, take the time to treat yourself.

*I’m not totally mad at you. I’m just sad. You’re all locked up in that little world of yours, and when I try knocking on the door, you just sort of look up for a second and go right back inside.*

*As for myself, I swung the door open. And there was the wordless, singing world. And I ran for my life.*

When I think of poetry, I am not thinking of it as a genre. Poetry is an awareness of the world, a particular way of relating to reality. So poetry becomes a philosophy to guide us throughout our lives. ~Andrei Tarkovsky
