Poetry Daily: From "Epitaphs"

I like reading Poetry Daily (wish it had a proper RSS feed). I'll sometimes print out poems I like and put them in my Poetry folder to pull out and marvel.

This poem, by Abraham Sutzkever (translated by Jacqueline Osherow) stopped me in my tracks and reminded me of how poetry differs from prose, how brief poems can open vast spaces.
