---|---|
Line 1 | Her Kind, By Anne Sexton |
Line 2 | I Have gone out, a possessed witch, haunting the air, braver at night. Dreaming evil |
Line 3 | I have done my hitch over the plain houses, light by light. |
Line 4 | Lonely thing, twelve fingered, out of mind. A woman like that is not a woman, quite. I have been her kind. |
Line 5 | I have found the warm caves in the woods. |
Line 6 | Filled them with skillets, carvings, shelves, closets, silks, innumerable goods; |
Line 7 | fixed the suppers for the worms and the elves: whining, rearranging the disaligned. A woman like that is misunderstood. i havew been her kind. |
Line 8 | I have ridden in your cart, driver, waved my nude arms at the villages going by, learning the last bright routes |
Line 9 | Surviver where your flames still bite my thigh and my ribs crack where your wheels wind. |
Line 10 | A woman like that is not ashamed to die. I have been her kind. |
