.
Sometimes an abyss opens between Tuesday and Wednesday but twenty-six years could pass in a moment.
Time is not a straight line, it’s more of a labyrinth, and if you press close to the wall at the right place you can hear the hurrying steps and the voices, you can hear yourself walking past on the other side.
—Tomas Tranströmer
The Great Enigma
.
The breaking wave
And the muscle as it contracts
Obey the same law.
An austere line
Gathers the body’s play of strength
In a bold balance.
Shall my soul meet
This curve, as a bend in the road
On her way to form?
—Dag Hammarskjöld
