I like the courage in Interim
Back cover
Her elegies are good. 'still' appears a lot in her poems.
A maiden lost in love is not down.
No rose in a garden that ever grew
In Homer's or in Omars or in mine
-Edna St Millay
If memory worked differently
our poems would not end in
rhymes but begin with synonyms
or end with antonyms
If it remembered experiences with
varying degrees
our poems would end in
er and est
Her sonnets
