“Talk Nonsense, But Talk Your Own Nonsense, And I’ll Kiss You For It. To Go Wrong In One’s Own

“Talk Nonsense, But Talk Your Own Nonsense, And I’ll Kiss You For It. To Go Wrong In One’s Own

“Talk nonsense, but talk your own nonsense, and I’ll kiss you for it. To go wrong in one’s own way is better than to go right in some one else’s. In the first case you are a man, in the second you’re no better than a bird.”

—Fyodor Dostoevsky Crime and Punishment

Franz Wright, from “East Boston, 1996; Night Walk,” in God’s Silence

they lassoed the moon, did you hear? yeah they brought it down last night and she got so close the water that the tides shot into the supermarkets

yeah my grandma had to pick out her radishes from waist-high ocean she said that the pasta was too close the ground so it was all floating

they're holding the moon halfway now so it's really beautifully bright you can see all the rich men running up and down the tether wearing bandanas to raise money for some charity they started

yeah no i think they're going to keep it there haha, yeah like as a resort somebody said something on the news about turning her face green with little chopped golf grass how about that; we will have a different moon in our memory than in the future , imagine asking were you born before the moon was green haha

last night yeah if you went outside to watch the balloon of her astral body bobbing in our atmosphere all that white particulate coming down like plaster drifting snow in moonrocks over our upturned cheeks

the moon, chafing, unable to rest in peace
