lo siento is spanish for sorry. but it literally means something more like, ‘i feel it.’ of course, most of the time i say it after accidentally stepping on someone’s toe in the supermarket, or after smashing something in the supermarket. but in a poetic context, it feels to me like a generous state of mind. a beautiful feat of empathy. i hear your concern, and i feel your agony like my own.
second place – again. another job i didn’t get. and do you know what. it was probably for the best. i was gutted at the time but i’m basically glad about it now. i’m starting a new job in the next week actually. an opportunity i would otherwise have missed.
the love epochal. n.n. benn
