Lisa Ray Instagram – My third or possibly fourth read of this spellbinding lamentation by Louise Gluck, named after a small crater lake in southern Italy regarded by the ancient Romans as the gateway to the underworld.
‘Winter will end, spring will return.
The small pestering breezes
that I so loved, the idiot yellow flowers-
Spring will return, a dream
based on a falsehood:
that the dead return.’ | Posted on 30/Dec/2021 10:48:00
