The Art Of Losing (A tribute to Elizabeth Bishop) - Shomprakash Sinha Roy

The Art Of Losing (A tribute to Elizabeth Bishop) - Shomprakash Sinha Roy

This one's a short episode, and it deals with the art of losing. It is a simple reading of one of my favorite poems of all time, One Art by Elizabeth Bishop. If you're someone like me who needs help in dealing with the concept of loss, this is for you. For those who prefer looking at the lyrics, they're included below, here in the description.

"One Art" by Elizabeth Bishop

The art of losing isn’t hard to master;

so many things seem filled with the intent

to be lost that their loss is no disaster.

Lose something every day. Accept the fluster

of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.

The art of losing isn’t hard to master.

Then practice losing farther, losing faster:

places, and names, and where it was you meant

to travel. None of these will bring disaster.

I lost my mother’s watch. And look! my last, or

next-to-last, of three loved houses went.

The art of losing isn’t hard to master.

I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster,

some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.

I miss them, but it wasn’t a disaster.

—Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture

I love) I shan’t have lied. It’s evident

the art of losing’s not too hard to master

though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.
