Twenty-One Love Poems: XXI
Adrienne Rich
The dark lintels, the blue and foreign stones of the great round rippled by stone implements the midsummer night light rising form beneath the horizon—when I said “a cleft of light” I meant this. And this is not Stonehenge simply nor any place but the mind casting back to where her solitude, shared, could be chosen without loneliness, not easily nor without pains to stake out the...
