As an argentinian, was a nice surprise hearing this on your podcast.
Borges is so good, one of the best ever.
I think a fun one from him that you would enjoy is "The Circular Ruins" (theres a lot more too of course).
I also think you would enjoy Julio Cortazar's takes on love, heres an example:
"What most people call loving consists of picking out a woman and marrying her. They pick her out, I swear, I’ve seen them. As if you could pick in love, as if it were not a lightning bolt that splits your bones and leaves you staked out in the middle of the courtyard."
Great line. Thanks for sharing.
Borges is a true master. Absolutely stunning. His poems are great, but his short stories are just beyond the beyond. I particularly love Tlon, Uqbar, Morbus Tortius and the Order of the Phoenix.
Borges is the best. Much love from Argentina !!♥
It's a rarity to find a poem that means Nothing, Anything and Everything at the same time.
This comment is poetry in and of itself.
Much love and keep on rockinˋ!
that moment.. where the two people meet..
.. is the meaning of life.
You hit me hard with that sentence
Lex has such a nice voice…I could listen to him read poetry forever
Thanks for sharing this amazing poem written by my compatriot Borges. Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
Makes total sense for a researcher into the mind's inner workings to be into the Blind Librarian. JLB was a visionary
Nothing compares to 20th century Latin American writers. This is a great translation as well--it must be an onerous task to re-cast gems into a different color. I appreciate seeing your appreciation of it :)
I believe this was originally written in English. "Two English poems"
That rare moment that Lex describes when you see a stranger and it’s like a lightning strike. Is it a glimpse of the beauty behind the social mask? And the heart stirs in its dark depths.
Aguante Borges! Loves from Argentina. Thanks for your work, Lex!
'El Amenazado' (The Threatened One) is another sublime love poem by Borges
Love u for this,greetings from Paraguay!
Cuando pediste que te recomienden libros todos te decían "el alquimista" y como quien no quiere la cosa llega Borges, bienvenido!
One of my favorite authors.
Great stuff, best regards Lex.
Amazing podcast
In all good readings of famous poems, the reader says “and so on, so on.”
Poetry blends the mind and the heart, although separate and seemingly estranged(anatomically speaking), into a chasm of what it means to be human.
The mere thought of two separate and different organs becoming one. Kind of like men and women.
Men think, woman feel(heart)...women know men feel..."at the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet"-some guy named plato (lol)...
Perhaps pursuing someone who makes you see things differently, has significance to the relationship that was always there...even before you knew the possibility of it.
The unknown, but felt and longed for places...
On another note, I love poetry, and have not read this...thanks for the recommendation!✌🏼(*all is just my opinion here...I am not expert)
You can't misread a poem... 🔥🔥
Now this is a beautiful love poem.
:-)
I love listening to Lex read poems before going to sleep.
It puts me in such a nice mood.
:-)
You can't tell me that someone who reads and understands poems like this hasn't been in love before.
Like with an actual person.
For more than just a brief time.
I just don't believe it.
🔥🔥❤️❤️
Why not read this poem in its entirety and make the comments after. I love this poem, (especially the lines he skips and says; on and on). Please, you’ve butchered this most heart-rendering piece. There is an art to reading poetry, which is not apparent here.
What is this poem called?
Two english poems
@@GeroG3N wow thank you very much !
Glad to finally have found it after such a long time.
☮️💟
Borges is an infinite mirror of perilous curves
Not super today ... todays more like steps to a fleeting time, decent shadows ti the sunset reflect the blissfull lost, love for once need not be contradiction, reality stumping as letters whispering and boggling notes to where steps land
😱
Man, just read the whole thing and leave your personal.comments for last
