For my sake she intervened<br>Brushing a few ants off the torn thing, and set it down<br>Across the road.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">My friend says I shut my eyes to God, that nothing else explains<br>My aversion to reality. She says I'm like the child who<br>Buries her head in the pillow<br>So as not to see, the child who tells herself<br>That light causes sadness-<br>My friend is like the mother. Patient, urging me<br>To wake up an adult like herself, a courageous person-</div><div style="margin:10px 0">In my dreams, my friend reproaches me. We're walking<br>On the same road, except it's winter now;<br>She's telling me that when you love the world you hear celestial music:<br>Look up, she says. When I look up, nothing.<br>Only clouds, snow, a white business in the trees<br>Like brides leaping to a great height-<br>Then I'm afraid for her; I see her<br>Caught in a net deliberately cast over the earth-</div><div style="margin:10px 0">In reality, we sit by the side of the road, watching the sun set;<br>From time to time, the silence pierced by a birdcall.<br>It's this moment we're trying to explain, the fact<br>That we're at ease with death, with solitude.<br>My friend draws a circle in the dirt; inside, the caterpillar doesn't move.<br>She's always trying to make something whole, something beautiful, an image<br>Capable of life apart from her.<br>We're very quiet. It's peaceful sitting here, not speaking, The composition<br>Fixed, the road turning suddenly dark, the air<br>Going cool, here and there the rocks shining and glittering-<br>It's this stillness we both love.<br>The love of form is a love of endings.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Louise+Gluck">Louise Gluck</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=450043" data-title="Celestial Music de Louise Gluck" data-description="I have a friend who still believes in heaven.
