My red book, name, address and number.
These are all people that I somehow own.
Yet some of these names are counterfeit.”

“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I cut my teeth as the black raccoon—
For implements of battle.”
—Countee Cullen (1903–1946)
