    The masses of the sea
    The masses of the sea under
    The masses of the infant-bearing sea

    and are not permitted to kiss on the street
    so I made up a song that wasn’t true.
    I made up a song called Marriage.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I expect to maintain this contest until successful, or till I die, or am conquered, or my term expires, or Congress or the country forsakes me.
