Women think
I had thought in those years, I suppose
But what pain
I thought now, to settle upon –
did not hold – that even that was illusory?
some more fantastic and rare dream
having once aspired? ...the most-the best-we can do:
over and over again, in the quiet part of our minds.
* These are Johanna's words, taken from Goodreads quotes from her novels. I just cut them up and rearranged them to create this poem.
