One of my favorites… still remember reading this years ago. A small piece of it:
“The Denial of Death
Louise Glück
ISSUE 226, FALL 2018
1. A Travel Diary
I had left my passport at an inn we stayed at for a night or so whose name I couldn’t remember. This is how it began. The next hotel would not receive me. A beautiful hotel, in an orange grove, with a view of the sea. How casually you accepted the room that would have been ours, and, later, how merrily you stood on the balcony, pelting me with foil-wrapped chocolates. The next day you resumed the journey we would have taken together.”
