		<description>Audre Lorde. Anything by Audre Lorde. Especially &quot;Stations.&quot; And &quot;Coping.&quot; And...well, anything by Audre Lorde. :)

I used to carry around in my wallet the end of &quot;Stations&quot; (not spaced correctly):

some women wait for something to change
and nothing does change
so they change
themselves.

(Have loved that poem for more than a dozen years, and still can&#039;t decide if that changing of themselves is good or bad. That&#039;s the mark of brilliance.)

And I also love &quot;Haiku II&quot; by Ruth Forman (which was turned into a song by a band, but I can&#039;t remember which one):

memories come down
and me once again
caught without an umbrella</description>

		<description>For the only literary anthology my high school ever put together, one of my friends submitted the following:

&quot;I wrote a really short story once.&quot;

That was it. And years later I still remember it. It totally counts as poetry.</description>
