Beautiful

Do you know what I was, how I lived? You know
what despair is; then
winter should have meaning for you.
I did not expect to survive,
earth suppressing me. I didn’t expect
to waken again, to feel
in damp earth my body
able to respond again, remembering
after so long how to open again
in the cold light
of earliest spring—
afraid, yes, but among you again
crying yes risk joy
in the raw wind of the new world.

A mystery box arrived at the Library today. In it, an altered copy of In Search of the Miraculous (1949), Pyotr Ouspensky’s account of the teachings of mystic George Gurdjieff. This copy belonged to artist and occultist John Graham, whose painting Two Sisters (1944) is in the MoMA collection. Update: the box was supposed to go to the Department of Drawings, which holds a sketchbook, among other works by the artist. - jt
A blackout by koalafication:
If time rolls up in a nice car
there’s not a logical reason behind it
just good business
