Welcome. As I am figuring how to go about freelance writing, I want to partially support myself with Patreon.

“How quickly we exile the truth of love from the love of truth.”

Richard Jackson, from “The Rivers,” The Heart as Framed: New and Selected Poems (Press 53, 2022)

“Sevginin hakikatini nasıl da çabucak ayırıyoruz hakikatin sevgisinden.”

Yani diyor ki gerçek sevgi hakikatin sevgisinden (doğruluğa bağlılıktan) ayrılamaz. Ama genelde şöyle düşünmeye meyilliyiz: “Doğruyu bildiğim halde ona uygun davranamam. Eğer doğruyu söylersem dışlanırım (dokuz köyden kovulurum), daima doğruya bağlı kalırsam zarar görürüm, yoksa ben iyi biriyim ve gerçek sevgiyi hak ediyorum.” Hayır, etmiyorsun.
