I wrote this essay for Thought Catalog.
I just started his book too! I vouch for his writing which seems like it’s written for me personally.

"Remember the moments when we were together
in a white room and the curtain fluttered.
Return in thought to the concert where music flared.
You gathered acorns in the park in autumn
and leaves eddied over the earth’s scars.
Praise the mutilated world
and the gray feather a thrush lost,
and the gentle light that strays and vanishes
and returns."
Adam Zagajewski, from “Try to Praise the Mutilated World”
(Translated, from the Polish, by Clare Cavanagh.)
