x "… I remember everything simultaneously;
Like the distant beam of a distant lighthouse,
I carry the universe before me
Like an easy burden in an outstretched palm,
And in the depths, mysteriously growing, is the seed
Of what is to come …"
— Anna Akhmatova, from “Creation”, translated by J. Hemschemeyer
