“I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.”

“In my darkest night,
when the moon was covered
and I roamed through wreckage,
a nimbus-clouded voice
directed me:
“Live in the layers,
not on the litter.”
Though I lack the art

in my book of transformations
is already written.
I am not done with my changes.”
― The Collected Poems

I repeat for the last time: to understand me, you’ll have to swallow the world.”
