it is indeed quite aphoristic and fun to pull individual quotes. but if you want to read “october” by louise glück in its entirety, which i highly recommend, you can find it here

friends, devastated to report that louise glück passed away today in this very october. if you haven’t read the poem before, i recommend doing so now.
