Summary

This quote emphasizes the ephemeral nature of human existence in relation to the constant cycle of news. It suggests that even though we may consider ancient texts, like those of Homer, as timeless and significant, they were once contemporary and fresh like the daily news of today. Thus, it implies that every day brings new narratives, stories, and events that will eventually become part of historyâ€™s tapestry. The quote invites us to appreciate the present moment and recognize that, in the grand scheme of things, every passing day holds its own significance and contributes to the ongoing flow of human history.

You are the daughter of the sea,oregano's first cousin.Swimmer, your body is pure as the water;cook, your blood is quick as the soil.Everything you do is full of flowers, rich with the earth.Your eyes go out toward the water, and the waves rise;your hands go out to the earth and the seeds swell;you know the deep essence of water and the earth,conjoined in you like a formula for clay.Naiad: cut your body into turquoise pieces,they will bloom resurrected in the kitchen.This is how you become everything that lives.And so at last, you sleep, in the circle of my armsthat push back the shadows so that you can rest -vegetables, seaweed, herbs: the foam of your dreams.
