Sometimes I come crashing down inside myself
without anyone noticing. I’m like an ambulance
on two legs, hauling the patient
inside me to last Aid
with the wailing cry of a siren
and people think it’s ordinary speech.
— Yehuda Amichai
The reason why I like poems a lot, is because they have the greatest impact for such a condensed form. How many times have I read a poem and nodded in agreement with the emotions that they convey.
And no, I am not suffering from D at all right now, but I do remember the feeling.
