Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 8, 2025



There is a poem by one of the most interationally famous Greek poets, Konstantinos Kavafis, called Waiting for the Barbarians. I invite you to give it a read (I've linked its translation) but here's the gist in a nutshell: It's about the Romans waiting for the Barbarians ...

Poetry Time 107: Posthuman

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Feb. 2, 2025



Event horizon. The faintest stroke of the rosey dawn.
The end of time or so it sounds.

Poetry Time 106: Cold to Hot Shadow

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Jan. 26, 2025



Your heart’s beating inside the hourglass

But the earth is now drinking and the silver shifts to brass
Your heart’s still beating in the hourglass.

Poetry Time 105: Intervals

Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, Jan. 19, 2025



Frozen ripples cracking in the glade
Blades so fine in between
Solemn metals clashing in the field
Yields of time in between
Broken rattles gatling in the cold
Molds to mind in between
