“My ambition has long felt oppressive. It is not a joy—it is a master that I must answer to, a smoke that descends into my life, making it hard to breathe. It is only my discipline, my willingness to push myself harder, that has been my way through.”

“I must become my own owner, my own authority. I must be a home to myself, and I must find a way to live what I believe.”

“I’m sorry you couldn’t find me. I have been in the woods. I put myself there because I couldn’t be good. I have been running with foxes and running with crows and I have found myself a home where no one goes.”

“This poem is not good enough because
Other women have also written poems
And, as everyone knows
There can only be one woman
Above all the others
Who has clawed and killed to get there
But maybe she doesn't have children
So
She's not good enough either
And she dies on the heap
with the rest of us”
