...a young nurse is standing close behind me wondering whether she is being drawn by my power or her charity.

I've forgotten most of what I've read and, frankly, it never seemed very important to me or to the world.

Well I am the one who loves changing from nothing to one.

Why don't you try to do without him, why don't you try to live alone? Do you really need his hands for your passion? Do you really need his heart for your throne? Do you need his labor for your baby? Do you need his beast for the bone? Do you need to hold a leash to be a lady? I know that you can make it, you can make it on your own.

If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn they will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem.

I loved you when you opened like a lily to the heat; you see I’m just another snowman standing in the rain and sleet who loved you with his frozen love, his second hand physique, with all he is and all he was a thousand kisses deep.

The wars they will be fought again The holy dove be caught again bought and sold and bought again; the dove is never free.
