interested, and not to throw myself at him with loudness or hysterical yelling; calmly,gently,
easy baby,easy. He is probably strutting the backs among crocuses now with seven
Scandinavian mistresses. And I sit spiderlike, waiting here, home; Penelope weaving webs of
Webster, turning spindles of Tourneur. Oh, he is here; my black marauder; oh hungry
hungry. I am so hungry for a big smashing creative burgeoning burdened love: I am here;
I wait, and he plays on the banks of the river Cam like a casual faun."
Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath ( March 10, 1956)
