SOME DAY
It is only the world, and only your time in it; it is only
the last breath, very soft. Now the hours can go home:
they always wanted the quiet they have found.
It is only your faults that wander now β no place
for them to go. But finally they will lie down
too, since no one will care any more.
Some place on the earth it may happen, may catch the light,
some day again, like the way Sunday was, or
when you crossed through the door the last time β
And the only thing left, your way of leaning your head,
will catch in that shadow and then slip and be gone.
William Stafford

Sketch of a new poem that keeps looping in my head, black writing on white background, text reads:
a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer & closer until you're the one filming it & screaming streaming it live to glowing screens & likes & shares & broken heart emojis sent in response to a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer & closer to home & the people you love until you're the one filming it & screaming ceasefire cease fire
Source of the poem in this tweet that reads:
@PerthshireMags
climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it
βUntil youβre the one filming itβ¦β πβ€οΈβπ₯

βi am running into a new yearβ by Lucille Clifton
i am running into a new year
and the old years blow back
like a wind
that i catch in my hair
like strong fingers like
all my old promises and
it will be hard to let go
of what i said to myself
about myself
when i was sixteen and
twenty-six and thirty-six
even thirty-six but
i am running into a new year
and i beg what i love and
i leave to forgive me
Lucille Clifton, always.
