Nude # 1

Each morning a vision came to me. Gradually I understood that these were naked glimpses of my soul.

I called them Nudes.

Nude # 1. Woman alone on a hill. She stands into the wind.”

Anne Carson (The glass essay)

I said…

I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting
.”

T.S. Eliot (Four quartets)
