time for 'A Sentence'
its time to be back to life again..celebrating with a poem, writer, Anna Akhmatova, fits my situation well..travel on...
A Sentence
--
And the stone word fell
On my still-living breast.
Never mind, I was ready.
I will manage somehow.
Today I have so much to do:
I must kill memory once and for all,
I must turn my soul to stone,
I must learn to live again—
Unless . . . Summer's ardent rustling
Is like a festival outside my window.
For a long time I've foreseen this
Brilliant day, deserted house.
