Louise Gluck - The Red Poppy

Louise Gluck - The Red Poppy

The great thing br is not having br a mind. Feelings: br oh, I have those; they br govern me. I have br a lord in heaven br called the sun, and open br for him, showing him br the fire of my own heart, fire br like his presence. br What could such glory be br if not a heart? Oh my brothers and sisters, br were you like me once, long ago, br before you were human? Did you br permit yourselves br to open once, who would never br open again? Because in truth br I am speaking now br the way you do. I speak br because I am shattered.
