“I’d better get right down to the job.
It’s true I don’t want to join the Army or turn lathes in
precision parts factories, I’m nearsighted and psychopathic anyway.
America I’m putting my queer shoulder to the wheel.”
—Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
“When my arms wrap you round I press
My heart upon the loveliness
That has long faded from the world....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
