national poetry month, day 10.

I spent an evening last week reading Catullus and laughing out loud at how gossipy and snippy and smutty he is. But then I found this and lost my breath.

85.
by Catullus

I hate & love. And if you should ask how I can do both,
     I couldn't say; but I feel it, and it shivers me.
