THIS WEEK'S HOSH!HUMANS OF SOUTH HOUSE
SEE P.6 FOR THIS WEEK'S HUMAN OFSOUTH HOUSE, FEAT. LILY SIMON '22
Dear South House Community, This week I have been reflecting a lot on the meaning of touch. It occurred to mesometime this past week that the last people I hugged – besides my husband,daughter, and cat – were the students on the FSP that I lead in New Zealand lastterm, when I said goodbye to them on March 9. It was sort of a crazy thought. Thisrealization left me with a sense of gratitude and longing, by turns. I have enjoyedthe forms of virtual connection that have opened up in this strange space-time oflockdown – like having FaceTime Fridays with my college roommates – but wehuman beings need and want all five senses. What happens to us, over time, withtouch stripped away? How will we find our ways back to different forms ofphysical closeness? I’ve also been steeping myself in poetry. Today, I read and marveled at theamazing Indigenous woman, writer, and former US Poet Laureate Joy Harjo’spoem, “Perhaps the World Ends Here.” Don’t worry. It is not as morbid as the titlemay sound. Rather, it is about joy, family, kitchen tables. Small things that holdbig wisdom. I hope you enjoy it. Be well,Sienna
