“I asked the master Yeats
Whose great style could not tell
Why it is man hates
His own salvation,
Prefers the way to hell....”

“Until the Women’s Movement, it was commonplace to be told by an editor that he’d like to publish more of my poems, but he’d already published one by a woman that month ... this attitude was the rule rather than the exception, until the mid-sixties. Highest compliment was to be told, “You write like a man.””
