“Came to Ajanta cave, the painted space of the breast,
the real world where everything is complete,
there are no shadows, the forms of incompleteness,
The great cloak blows in the light, rider and horse arrive,
the shoulders turn and every gift is made.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (19131980)
“The war against Vietnam is only the ghastliest manifestation of what Id call imperial provincialism, which afflicts Americas whole cultureaware only of its own history, insensible to everything which isnt part of the local atmosphere.”
—Stephen Vizinczey (b. 1933)
