Many people will help take care of their needs, depending on who their parents are and how they chose to fulfill their roles.”

And sculptured Ann is seventy years of stone.
These cloud-sopped, marble hands, this monumental
Argument of the hewn voice, gesture and psalm,
Storm me forever over her grave”
