"Divergence" by Diana Khoi Nguyen

Divergence

 
Diana Khoi Nguyen
Nguyen reads "Divergence."

About This Poem

 

"In thinking about death as the ultimate divergence from the realm of the living, I found myself reflecting on how the ashes of my brother diverged from themselves, each other, himself—into the Pacific Ocean, a place along whose shores I often find myself. There, in the gift-detritus of the sea, I see parts of once-living and now-living things, as well as a bird flying low across the sound, so low it nearly merges with its reflection. Divergence, as sibling to convergence, how one structure exists but takes "a different direction" across species. How its function similarly diverges—the hand which wipes away a tear is also the hand which wields a hammer."
Diana Khoi Nguyen

 

Diana Khoi Nguyen is the author of Ghost Of (Omnidawn, 2018), which was a finalist for the 2018 National Book Award and L.A. Times Book Prize, as well as winner of the 2019 Kate Tufts Discovery Award and Colorado Book Award. She's a writer-in-residence at the University of Tennessee and lives in Knoxville.

Siesta

 
Spencer Reece
Reece reads "Siesta."

About This Poem

 

"I began this poem in the south of Spain one hot summer day, in a little town called Ayamonte. Siesta is such a religious sacrosanct act here in Spain and I wanted to memorialise it. Also my poetic Spanish hero Antonio Machado wrote a poem once with this title, and I think of him so often here and wonder what he'd think of Spain now so I wanted to summon him to my table."
Spencer Reece

 

Spencer Reece is the author of two poetry collections: The Road to Emmaus (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2014) and The Clerk's Tale (Mariner Books, 2003). He is the founder of the Unamuno Author Series, and an ordained Episcopal priest who works for the Bishop of the Spanish Episcopal Church. He lives in Madrid, Spain.
