    What is the first thing that savage tribes accept from Europeans nowadays? Brandy and Christianity, the European narcotics.—And what is it that most rapidly leads to their destruction?—The European narcotics.

    Her body is a honey bowl
    Whose waiting honey is deep and hot.
    Her body is like summer earth,
    Receptive, soft, and absolute . . .
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
    In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
    There I couch when owls do cry.
    On the bat’s back I do fly
    After summer merrily.
    Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
    Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
