L. V., I Found This Poem Tracing Constellations On Your Back

Midnight Blue (detail)
Eyvind Earle, 1983

Somewhere, a universe exists without you.

No matter how badly scarred this one becomes,

I’d choose it over any heaven that knows nothing of you.

Detail of "Sower at Sunset" (1888)
by van Gogh

All at once, I was Icarus and I was the moth.
I flew too close to the bright yellow light.
Unlike Icarus, unlike the moth, unfortunately,
I survived.
- L. V.

You talked about your old poem titled Literary Vein. Can you direct me to the post? I can't find it anywhere on your page. Thank you!!

I don't think I've posted it before. Maybe snippets of it. But here it is:

Literary Vein

I reread my favourite book today. The plot was the same. The characters, unchanged.

They’re the same age, wearing the same clothes I’d left them in years ago.

The words were unaltered; the pages still smell like Sundays alone at home.

The only thing that changed was the emotions. When I reached the climax,

I did not feel the same rushing excitement I once felt, finding out who the murderer was.

On the contrary you still make me feel

like I could tell you anything even after all these years.

Perhaps in that sense, one could say you are my favourite book.

Why do bad things happen to good people?

Detail of "Children on a Dune"
by: Ferdinand du Puigaudeau (c. 1890)

Doing bad things doesn’t necessarily make us bad people, right?

to start showing up in the children’s nightmares?

Your Vincent Van Gogh poem is beautiful. Now I wanna believe in reincarnation too.

Let's believe in reincarnation together, dear stranger.
