Premium Member The Blue Pond - linocut by Hugo Henneberg
Wild eyed I wade through reflections, as I unhook from the moon. Branches become nets, become veins, that drape from entangling limbs. Harmless mistakes, underscored a hundredfold, creating cracks in the Earth. My feet still find the pond floor. The water as dangerous as my thoughts - yet...

Victor Hugo Translation
Victor Hugo "Love Stronger Than Time" Translation by Michael Burch Since I first set my lips to your full cup, Since my pallid face first nested in your hands, Since I sensed your soul and every bloom lit up— Till those rare perfumes were lost to deepening sands; Since I was once allowed those pleasures deep— To hear your heart speak mysteries,...

Will You Go, Hugo?
Will you go, Hugo, a-marching with me? Will you go, Hugo, way down to the sea? Over the hills we go, into the sun (Shining on flowers and kissing each one). Into the wind we go, singing so fair, Skipping a song on the bright summer air! Under the bridge we go, hollering loud; Hollering, hollering, hollering proud! Down to the sand we...
