IT IS NOT SO MUCH THAT I MISS YOU | Dorothea Grossman

It is not so much that I miss you
as the remembering
which I suppose is a form of missing
except more positive,
like the time of the blackout
when fear was my first response
followed by love of the dark.

About:

I want to be at least as alive as the vulgar. And if some aficionado of my mess says
"That's not like Frank!," all to the good! I don't wear brown and grey suits all the
time, do I? No. I wear workshirts to the opera,
often. I want my feet to be bare,
I want my face to be shaven, and my heart--you can't plan on the heart, but
the better part of it, my poetry, is open.
— Frank O'Hara
