Wildpeace by Yehuda Amichai
(Translated By Chana Bloch & Stephen Mitchell)
Not the peace of a cease-fire, not even the vision of the wolf and the lamb, but rather as in the heart when the excitement is over and you can talk only about a great weariness. I know that I know how to kill, that makes me an adult. And my son plays with a toy gun that knows how to open and close its eyes and say Mama. A peace without the big noise of beating swords into ploughshares, without words, without the thud of the heavy rubber stamp: let it be light, floating, like lazy white foam. A little rest for the wounds— who speaks of healing? (And the howl of the orphans is passed from one generation to the next, as in a relay race: the baton never falls.) Let it come like wildflowers, suddenly, because the field must have it: wildpeace.

J's Tune of the Day 🎧

This is more of a spoken poem with musical accompaniment than a tune, but I am going to keep it.

If wandering is quicker than death What is there to fear? You have two hands and two feet You are not lonely. Beautiful bodies are folded around their love With the folding skill and wisdom of nursery schools. A man passes through the wall And the wall remains whole and he remains whole. Such a man you are Or you will become one.
