“I have no connections here; only gusty collisions,
rootless seedlings forced into bloom, that collapse.

I am the Visiting Poet: a real unicorn,
a wind-up plush dodo, a wax museum of the Movement.
People want to push the buttons and see me glow.”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
“She’s loose! She’ll tear the roof off!”
—Mark Hanna, and Nathan Hertz. Nurse (Eileen Stevens)

—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
“She carries in the dishes,
And lays them in a row.
To an isle in the water
With her would I go.”
