Place a large dam
by the wellsprings of the pain
gather with it
like water
watch over it
so it doesn't disperse
for it is your life.

untitled poem translated into English by Linda Zisquit in Wild Light (1997)

and that's not what'
ll satisfy
my hunger no
that's not
what
'll ease
my mind
no
that's not it.
