Anne Barge: Skylar
I kind of like this piece of ridiculous fluff. It looks like one had to rough up a swan or a ballerina to get it.
I will love you with no regard to the actions of our enemies or the jealousies of actors.
I will love you with no regard to the outrage of certain parents or the boredom of certain friends.
I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday.
I will love you if you cut your hair and I will love you if you cut the hair of others.
I will love you if you drop your raincoat on the floor instead of hanging it up and I will love you if you betray your father.
I will love you as misfortune loves orphans, as fire loves innocence and as justice loves to sit and watch while everything goes wrong.
I will love you as we grow older, which has just happened, and has happened again, and happened several days ago, continuously, and then several years before that, and will continue to happen as the spinning hands of every clock and the flipping pages of every calendar mark the passage of time, except for the clocks that people have forgotten to wind and the calendars that people have forgotten to place in a highly visible area.
I will love you no matter where you go and who you see, no matter where you avoid and who you don’t see, and no matter who sees you avoiding where you go. I will love you no matter what happens to you, and no matter how I discover what happens to you, and no matter what happens to me as I discover this, and no matter how I am discovered after what happens to me happens to me as I am discovering this.
That is how I will love you even as the world goes on its wicked way.
Halló, this is Iceland.
I do not know how it is in the country where you live, but the humans who live on me are all the same. They do not care who other humans love.
Bless bless,
