That have found it where you fed.
What were all the worlds alarms
To mighty Paris when he found
Sleep upon a golden bed
That first dawn in Helens arms?”

and unties our bone and is finished with the case,
and turns to the next customer, forgetting our face
or how we knelt at the yellow bulb with sighs
like moth wings for a short while in a small place.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“... the compensation for a death sentence is knowledge of the exact hour when one is to die. A great luxury, but one that is well earned.”
