Chekhov's Mistress

One could abandon writing…

by Bud Parr

“One could abandon writing
for the slow burning signals
of the great, to be, instead
their ideal reader, ruminative,
Voracious, making the love of masterpieces
superior to attempting
to repeat or outdo them,
and be the greatest reader in the world.”

- from Derek Walcott’s “Volcano”
