“Inside the huge romanesque church the tourists jostled in the half darkness.
Vault gaped behind vault, no complete view.
A few candle-flames flickered.
An angel with no face embraced me
and whispered through my whole body:
“Don’t be ashamed of being human, be proud!
Inside you vault opens behind vault endlessly.
You will never be complete, that’s how it’s meant to be.”
Blind with tears
I was pushed out on the sun-seething piazza
together with Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Herr Tanaka and Signora Sabatini
and inside them all vault opened behind vault endlessly.”— Romanesque Arches, Tomas Tranströmer (trans. Robin Fulton)
Halloween aftermath: His sewing machine had done it’s duty and died with honor.
Anyway, I loved “Reunion” because it basically confirmed the fandom’s characterization of Jesse McCree: badass of course, but charming, jovial, heroic, and even kind and tender (“welcome back, pardner.”)
There’s a lot packed into that short: him tipping BOB’s hat (“no hard feelings”), him helping Echo out of her lil suitcase (so fucking gentlemanly I raised him right), the whole fact of him risking his life to help the cause in any way he can (“they want me, they need you”)
Also, his little “whatever” after fixing himself and calling Winston a scientist: what a poet
love galore
