Anew as We Speak

Updated: Jul 28, 2020

Edouard Glissant, French poet, philosopher and literary critic from Martinique, writes in Le discours antillais: "Language [la langue] creates the relationship, language [le langage] creates difference, each and other just as precious."


In a very different context, I write:

"Create a relationship with me. Create difference with me.

There are lines that have yet to be tread.

Perhaps we can use some metal wire, or the scarf lying at the edge my bed.

Et a toi je donne mon coeur."
