    “She that but little patience knew,
    From childhood on, had now so much
    A grey gull lost its fear and flew

    And there endured her fingers’ touch
    And from her fingers ate its bit.”

    “And life, the flicker of men and moths and the wolf on the hill,
    Though furious for continuance, passionately feeding, passionately
    Remaking itself upon its mates, remembers deep inward
    The calm mother, the quietness of the womb and the egg,”
    —Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
