„What can I do with this memory?Shake the bones out of it?Defoliate the smile?Stub out the chin with cigarettes?Take the face of the man I loveand squeeze my foot into it,when all the while my heart is making a museum?I love you the way the oboe plays.I love you the way skinny dipping makes my body feel.I love you the way a ripe artichoke tastes.Yet I fear you,as one in the desert fears the sun.“
— Anne Sexton
