One week in May, we wake each day to sirens. Branches shaking, snapped. We aren’t lulled back to dreams by the wailing, the rhythmic pelting of hail. ✍️ A poem by Carolina Hotchandani.

Paradise may be the time when we can finally turn to our past and see that its beauty was there despite our being there. In fact, its beauty can finally be seen because we aren't there.

From INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LOVERS, by Dawn Lundy Martin

A poem titled “About Secrets, D + D” by Dawn Lundy Martin. It reads “I like secrets though. I think about the way secrets are a product of a shared. Secrets are a necessary part of how people form, locate themselves and each other. The secret is crucial for the erotic. And devastating for what happens after the moment of foreclosure. If a secret is held right where the nature of the secret is shared and understood, the disclosures are less personalized, so the devastation is still present but shifts from altering truth to multiplicity, ever present (loss) against oneness. How can a secret be shared when the very word ‘secret’ means apart? The secret isn’t shared, but the purpose of the secret is shared. What if I, say; accidentally murdered your hamster, and that’s the secret? If you accidentally murdered my hamster, I would know you didn’t tell me because you have your own feelings about it that you were processing before processing my reaction/response to it. A secret is a promise in reverse. Which is the weapon? Which hurts the most? For example, it’s just us on earth now and our eyes are quite dry. We think we hear a yodeling from afar. We reveal the door.”
