почему интересно быть филологом
отправили нас на практику в иностранку. там дали на роспись журнал "Poetry" (http://www.poetryfoundation.org/ здесь он-лайн версия). понятно, что в основном стихотворения пролистываются на предмет названия (каталожной карточке больше и не надо), но что-то цепляет. из зацепившего:
And if my love is only my invention
that is unimportant
since to say I love him
therefore makes it so.
To be content is to be so
by choice - my friend,
when she had told me that he came
inside her crying
choked with guilt & pleasure
which we all know will intoxicate when mixed,
was simply unaware that happiness
is mine by right if I declare it,
like the moon wuth our absurd flag
