Historical Valentine

One must be sad
to read history
as what happened
and not as what
must now be done
however the past
refuses what flows
into it out of the future
the way trees come
out of a certain air
or the air itself comes
out of last year’s
berries and despair
as if time wanted
to hurry past itself
and still be there
