“I wanted him to fly, burst like a missile from your throat,
burst from the spidery-mother-web,
burst from Woman herself

that stuck to you and left a burn
that smarted into your middle age.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“In order to get to East Russet you take the Vermont Central as far as Twitchell’s Falls and change there for Torpid River Junction, where a spur line takes you right into Gormley. At Gormley you are met by a buckboard which takes you back to Torpid River Junction again.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
