    “Do but consider this small dust, here running in the glass,
    By atoms moved.
    Could you believe that this the body was
    Of one that loved?
    And in his mistress’ flame playing like a fly,
    Turned to cinders by her eye?
    Yes, and in death as life unblest,
    To have’t expressed,
    Even ashes of lovers find no rest.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    They are provident instead,
    Content in the tight hot cell of their hearts
    To eat dusty bread.”
    —Louise Bogan (1897–1970)
