- Post Title & Inspiration:
The way a deer emerges from a thicket
is the opposite of a wound.Like the moon in the morning —
all firmament, beautiful, about to vanish.Each morning I walk out my apartment
& wonder what is going to become of me.— Devin Kelly, “Deer on the Side of an American Highway,” published in drDOCTOR (via bostonpoetryslam)
- And also inspired by:
We move within the snow-chromed world—: Like-animal. Like-deer. An alphabet. Along a street white as lamp light into the winter, walking—: like language, a new text. I touch her with the eyes of my skin.
~ Natalie Diaz, from ‘Between the Palm and the Ear” (Boston Review)
I touch her (them) with the eyes of my skin
