Phosphene

The time and place and manner of my death are three facts that don’t exist yet.
Facts exist for whole centuries and then suddenly cease.
Pluto used to be a planet and now it is a chunk of debris, number 1341340.
My grandmother’s house stands on the hill above the sea where she left it.
When I come back to visit I discover a crater in its place.
This room is full of facts.
All day I let the cat out, let it in, then let it back out again.
I mean this metaphorically.
Some facts never exist.
It is winter. It is summer.
All night the branches tap at the glass.
- Trans-Neptunian Object by Suzanne Buffam.

“El infierno de la calle, en Placeres, tenía sus trastiendas, sus hornos con boca a la luz. El aire de los hornos sofocaba hasta la muerte el alma; sabía a lodo seco. De ese lado del fuego, el aire, en cuanto tocaba el cuerpo, costras, camisa ingrata. La luz y la sombra, abismos afuera, adentro, por oficios del bochornoso, se habían amistado en una sola neblina, parto de una llama. De los rincones del horno, desde la raíz del humo, venía el tufo del polvo devorado por el incendio de los veranos. ”
-Los Músicos y el Fuego de Jesús Gardea.

    Who is Bertrand Cantat?

  8. Gordon, Wendake, Québec. says:

    Bertrand Lucien Bruno Cantat is a French singer and songwriter. He is the frontman for the rock band Noir Désir.(In 2003, following an argument related to infidelity, Cantat repeatedly assaulted his girlfriend Marie Trintignant in a hotel room in Vilnius, Lithuania. She died several days later in hospital in a deep coma, and a post-mortem examination showed she had suffered multiple head injuries. He got out of jail recently.)

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
