How to Cure a Ghost
by Fariha Róisín
2.7 de 5 estrellas
Me gustaron un par de los poemas, en algunos la autora hablaba de temas muy importantes y muy fuertes, que contenían versos hermosos, pero luego me encontraba con versos que no sé cómo lograron terminar en el libro.
dos de los versos que me llamaron mucho la atención serían:
“what is life if not a remembrance of the good and the bad? I’m sure there are many like me who question how unlovable they are. am I entirely, wholly, unequivocally unlovable? how did I become like this? sopping up every moment of betrayal, feeding it into a narrative of self-loathing. but how about good enough for me? why isn’t that an option?”
“i am sometimes drifting like
a lost person, with no heir
or heirloom, a fog
of longing.
until, i decided on myself.
that day, i chose me.
like an orchestra choosing
bach. i was a symphony,
my god. i was a grand symphony—
how could i have not known?”
Excerpts From: Fariha Róisín. “How to Cure a Ghost.”
