Secure in his flight
Rider on the constant winds
Hawk flies through his days

Looks then to the east
Prompted by fate’s gentle breeze
Changes his intent

Fate’s gentle breezes
Move the mighty heart to change
Destiny remade

Steve Robison

Go to quote


...feel the fierce way desire
tourniquets itself around you and
clings

Clubland South of Market tweak-
chic trannies powder their noses from
bullet-shaped compacts and flick their forked
tongues like switchblades as they burn the night
down bleed day to night to day to

Mission sidewalks where pythons hide
twenty dollar balloons beneath their tongues which
get bartered in smiles quicker than a coke buzz and
tossed out through the cracks

Cottonmouth kisses
camouflage emotions and
strike with a vengeance
when he
wants and she
wants and they
want and I
won't

Genet was right, I suppose
when he wrote "The only way
to avoid the horror of horror is
to give in to it"
it's
the nature of
the economy of the
business it's the
nature of
things...

kau bukan gula-gula kapas,
yang bagiku cuma lembut,
kau terlahir sebagai popkon,
yang rangup dan manis,
yang aku nikmati dalam gelap,
menghadap pelbagai genre,
dilayar panggung.

Salleh Razak

That’s the thing about love
It can take you up to the mountaintop and can drop you
And the impact will either kill you or make you a new person

मेरी कविता क्या है!
सच्चाई के दो मोती हैं;
एक खुशी की परछाईं का
एक दर्द की गहराई का

So Lightning says to Mud,
“What would happen if I struck your blood?”
And Mud says, “Brother,
It would hurt,
And make me the mother
Of every living thing.
But, Fire Boy, you ain’t lifting my grass skirt
Until you burn me a ring.

Sherman Alexie

Go to quote


About your easy heads my prayers
I said with syllables of clay.
What gift, I asked, shall I bring now
Before I weep and walk away?

Take, they replied, the oak and laurel.
Take our fortune of tears and live
Like a spendthrift lover. All we ask
Is the one gift you cannot give.

Tana French
