“But there are moments, walking, when I catch a glimpse of myself in the window glass, say, the window of the corner video store, and I'm gripped by a cherishing so deep for my own blowing hair, chapped face, and unbuttoned coat that I'm speechless:
I am living. I remember you”
― Marie Howe, What the Living Do: Poems

― Kate Alice Marshall, What Lies in the Woods
