    “At twelve, the disintegration of afternoon
    Began, the return to phantomerei, if not
    To phantoms. Till then, it had been the other way:

    At twelve, as green as ever they would be.
    The sky was blue beyond the vaultiest phrase.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    ““... It may be Prester John’s balloon
    Or an old battered lantern hung aloft
    To light poor travellers to their distress.”
    She then: “How you digress!””
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “We honor motherhood with glowing sentimentality, but we don’t rate it high on the scale of creative occupations.”
