And sometimes, and only in spring,
a dove from the river's soft vale of lilies
will fly as close to you as trust,
and a calm in the great reds of autumn
will, as often as you need, lie down
beside you, raising a brow you've known
above the eyes of the only woman
you will ever have a need to dream or touch.
Kama unataka kuijua vizuri historia ya mwanamke hasa mwanamke unayetaka kuoana naye, usifanye naye mapenzi kwa miezi sita angalau. Ukifanya naye mapenzi kwa miezi sita au zaidi, au ndani ya miezi sita, halafu akakuchanganya kimapenzi, hutakuwa na uwezo mkubwa wa kuwasikiliza watu kuhusiana na historia yake.
Man is willing to accept woman as an equal, as a man in skirts, as an angel, a devil, a baby-face, a machine, an instrument, a bosom, a womb, a pair of legs, a servant, an encyclopaedia, an ideal or an obscenity; the one thing he won't accept her as is a human being, a real human being of the feminine sex.
