“And the most terrifying question of all may be just how much horror the human mind can stand and still maintain a wakeful, staring, unrelenting sanity.”

Soon you will vanish into thin air. / I know this the way the man in my neighborhood / knew tornadoes. Sometimes when the sky was spotless blue, / the fillings in his teeth would sting, / then a black funnel cloud would rise and drop, / tearing up the town's whole future / pigs, chickens, fields of rice. Was he not blessed / to know death in such good weather? Even now, // after supper on this sunny deck / I can't enjoy the sea. It doesn't matter / that your shirt is bleached white / nor that your neck smells of mint shaving cream / clean and hopeful as next year. I can only grieve / for empty lobster shells split on the blue plate, / feeling this day gave way to other days, how sad / the triangle of your back will be / when you finally walk away. / This is the curse of drawing inward, and this / is how to die alone, by focusing on doubt / till it becomes a turbulent center in the skull, / a giant straw through which everything is sucked, / like my mouth forming an ”o” / through which all kisses disappear.

Mary Karr, “Predictions” [ID in alt text]
