On Loan


"If, every day, I dare to remember that I am here on loan, that this house, this hillside, these minutes are all leased to me, not given, I will never despair. Despair is for those who expect to live forever. I no longer do."

Erica Jong, writer, poet, teacher (b. 1942)

  The moon uninvited came Smelling of daffodils, her lips sweet red wine Swaying her hips like a lover
