    “Old man, it’s four flights up and for what?
    Your room is hardly any bigger than your bed.
    Puffing as you climb, you are a brown woodcut
    stooped over the thin rail and the wornout tread.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Crash on crash of the sea,
    straining to wreck men, sea-boards, continents,
    raging against the world, furious.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
