5.0
"Better to be ravaged straightway in youth / Than to live out another year’s quiet undoing."
"I don’t want to know, or understand, or be restored / To reason."
"My flesh forsakes itself. Strangers’ eyes / Drill into me till I bleed. I beg God: Make me a ghost."
"Besieged, I sink / Into a dark world."
"I don’t want to know, or understand, or be restored / To reason."
"My flesh forsakes itself. Strangers’ eyes / Drill into me till I bleed. I beg God: Make me a ghost."
"Besieged, I sink / Into a dark world."
