1) I'm getting board, board, board
Looking toward, toward, toward
The ceiling, ceiling, ceiling
Which is not at all revealing
2) But what else can I do
My choices are new
And few
Earlier poems
I walk with sudden dignity--
I know not why or how
All I know is that I know--
I am a woman now...
The day was bright with sunshine
The foliage gemmed with green
The grass was far too to walk
The sidewalk was too clean---
And I was filled with consciousness
Of what could not be seen--
A soul is racked with birth pains
Before the truth is born
A sky is racked with heavy rains
Before the dawn of morn
I don't drink beer
I don't drink wine
But ply me with chocolate
And I am thine
I walk with sudden dignity
I know not why or how--
All I know is that I know
I am a woman now
