it was too ordinary / to even dare to remember.

So devastating to realize so forcefully and all at once what you've known this whole time but couldn't admit to yourself because you have to go about living your life as scheduled: this isn't normal, not even close.

"Because we'll someday ache, for any regular Sunday in June" Maaaan, that hits different

I love that twist at the end of the poem - the end of everything for us might just be the climax of something immense for the universe.

"there's the black / chasm of want expanding / in my chest the way a bead / of ink breaks, making me difficult / to touch without an exit plan" Augh so good.

is the first part for me : "at which point time will cease to exist and i can finally stop complaining" I fell in love at once.

The rough, raspy voice and the pauses that are a-little-too-long take this poem to a whole new level.

@rightonrightonrighton 3 года назад

Agreed! This was beautifully read and not at all affected

This title really grabbed my curiosity and I absolutely love the line 'there was not a single indication the cosmos would one day shut like your eyes, tight with pleasure.' E.P.I.C.

@leahnew4880 3 года назад

That’s one that will stay with me.

this poem sent genuine chills shooting through my body - as someone who also painfully struggles with time and change and the thing time distorts and leaves behind I absolutely loved this poem and the idea of how we must the most ordinary and mundane the most when everything goes askew and fades and how we can't hold onto it all no matter how hard we try

@kappanova1302 3 года назад

God I didn't consider how great Sav's writing has become. And that intonation, immaculate

@nathanielhamovitz4010 2 года назад

@brandonwintpoetry 3 года назад

This is one of the most staggering poems on this platform so far, and there have been so many others. Thank you.

I really love Savs voice. she's got a really nice rhythm even when she's just talking.

@sarahparsons4314 3 года назад

@randomdancer758 3 года назад

I love Savavah, she's a very good poet. Thank you Ours Poetica for bringing her here.

@dob1997 3 года назад

oooooooof i like this a lot. the bead of ink breaking, the ordinary to remember, the ending with the eyes shutting tight- what a beautiful piece

@robertraish4279 3 года назад

Wonderfully performed! A lovely start to my morning

@paulschumacher1263 2 года назад

Super. Lots of fresh directions going on all the time. Love the way you keep shuttling back and forth between the cosmic and ordinary (and microcosmic). Great gentleness and humor.

@maryemma6244 3 года назад

i subscribed to savannah’s channel when i was younger and, when i came back to youtube, didnt end up finding her again-it was a really lovely bit of deja vu seeing her on this channel, and a wonderful poem

@peptobismolveins 2 года назад

Her full name is savannah brown and her channel is by the same name. You can search and sub again and watch all the things u used to watch.

I closed my eyes after reading your poem, and I destroyed my notion of circular time. Beautiful imagery!

@KeyserTheRedBeard 3 года назад
