“Fury” by Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko

Today, I’m going to sit at home, listen to Bon Iver and feel sorry for myself. Because I haven’t gotten enough chances to.

poetrysociety:

You won’t find a new country, won’t find another shore.
This city will always pursue you.
You’ll walk the same streets, grow old
in the same neighborhoods, turn gray in these same houses.
You’ll always end up in this city. Don’t hope for things elsewhere:
there’s no ship for you, there’s no road.
Now that you’ve wasted your life here, in this small corner,
you’ve destroyed it everywhere in the world.

C. P Cavafy, from The City, translated by Edmund Keeley
Cavafy etching by David Hockney, 1967

This speaks to me in a way. Going to write something on this later.
