Galway Kinnell Quotes - Page 2

• Goodbye,
  you who are, for me, the postmarks again
  of shattered towns--Xenia, Burnt Cabins,
  Hornell--
  their loneliness
  given away in poems, only their solitude kept.

• this one whom habit of memory propels to the ground of his making,
  sleeper only the mortal sounds can sing awake,
  this blessing love gives again into our arms.
