Julia Origo poetry: Observations

Julia Origo (1965 – 2005)

Observations

Thoughts and observations on man and nature:
my mental temperament is highly developed,
if you were a gentleman you’d offer me a ride
and hear the satisfaction in my voice,
maybe I would blush, every now and then,
maybe not,
maybe I’ll write a poem.

(From: Transfusion, 1987)
