    Sat in the corner,
    Eating a Christmas pie;

    And pulled out a plum,
    And said, What a good boy am I!

    Are you forgiving, giving shelter?
    Follow your heart; love will find you;
    truth will unbind you;
    Sing out a song of the soul.
    —Cris Williamson (20th century)

    Howbeit eluding fallopian diagnosis,
    She simpers into the tribal library and reads
    That Keats died of tuberculosis . . .
