“The Days Take Root in Stone"

My days take root in stones.
Growing causes so much pain.
But the blueness above them
is altogether more ethereal, purer.


As with slender, gnarled branches
which tarries a while and is gone
they would weave a heaven
over me, and over my silence.”
Anna Margolin, Drunk from the Bitter Truth: The Poems of Anna Margolin
“And love is a toxic flame that makes
the roads weird and bloody.”
Anna Margolin, Drunk from the Bitter Truth: The Poems of Anna Margolin
