Octavio Paz: The Collected Poems of Octavio Paz, 1957-1987: Bilingual Edition

forever arriving;
Wislawa Szymborska: Poems New and Collected 1957-1997
"All poets are in a perpetual dialogue with the phrase I don't know. Each poem, marks an effort to answer this statement, but as soon as the final period hits the page, the poet begins to hesitate, starts to realize that this particular answer was pure makeshift, absolutely inadequate."

Enigma: Le roi est mort, VIVE le roi
Ambient, New Age? A great listening album.
