“I am like a table
that eats its own legs off
because it’s fallen
in love with the floor.”
Cate Marvin, Fragment of the Head of a Queen: Poems

“I think with my blood.”
Cate Marvin, Fragment of the Head of a Queen: Poems

“We lay our words like tenuous plats, build a bridge over its
unsinkable depth: Not a sea of longing,
but the brack of wanting what’s physical
to help us forget we are physical.”
Cate Marvin
