List of Things That Can Be Useful to a Poet*

Things that are not far from here

Things that can be spoken clearly

Thing lost in the Sahara Desert

Things that don’t mean a damn thing

Things that are more exquisite than others

Things that look honest beyond any doubt

Things that are on a pedestal

Things that give you hope

Things that are better than they look

Things that look like they have come to an end

Things that are buried underground

Things that should be plucked today

Things that are unbelievable

Things that are in surplus in the universe

Things whose majesty is sublime

Things that ought to make you cry

Things that are useless

Things whose loneliness is scary

Things that look like flowers but are not

Things full of holes

Things without detours

Things that make you fall asleep

Things that refuse to be apprehended

Things that pretend to be things
