it will not be simple, it will not be long
it will take little time, it will take all your thought
it will take all your heart, it will take all your breath
it will be short, it will not be simple
it will touch through your ribs, it will take all your heart
it will not be long, it will occupy your thought
[…] it will be short, it will take all your breath
it will not be simple, it will become your will
Adrienne Rich (Final Notations)
