On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, thinking about this poem by Paul Celan:
Shibboleth
Together with my stones
grown big with weeping
behind the bars,
they dragged me out into
the middle of the market,
that place
where the flag unfurls to which
I swore no kind of allegiance.

Posting on here still feels typing into the void - but it's a friendly blue void, right? A blue-oid? A bloid?

A poetic quote and an academic mystery:
Who else has heard the quote attributed to Paul Éluard (or sometimes Rilke): "There is another world, and it is this one" ?
