"CHÈVRECHOUTISME is the act of attempting to reconcile or make happy two opposing sides who are, in fact, totally irreconcilable. It derives from a French idiom, ‘ménager la chèvre et le chou’—which literally means ‘to accommodate the goat and the cabbage’." --@HaggardHawks

Paysage au crépuscule.

“A LA POINTE ACÉRÉE

The ores are laid bare, the crystals,
the geodes.
Unwritten things, hardened
into language, lay bare
a sky.
(Thrown out upward, revealed,
crossways, so
we too are lying.
Door in front of it once, tablet
with the killed
chalk star on it: that
a—reading?—eye has now.)
Ways to that place.
Forest hour alongside
the spluttering wheeltrack.
Col-
lected
small, gaping
beechnuts: blackish
openness, questioned
by finger thoughts
about– –
about what?
About
the unrepeatable, about
everything.
Spluttering tracks to that place.
Something mobile, ungreeting
as all that’s turned into heart,
is coming.”
