Dorianne Laux Quotes

Moon In The Window
I Wish I Could Say I Was The Kind Of Child
who Watched The Moon From Her Window,
would Turn Toward It And Wonder.
I Never Wondered. I Read. Dark Signs
that Crawled Toward The Edge Of The Page.
It Took Me Years To Grow A Heart
from Paper And Glue. All I Had
was A Flashlight, Bright As The Moon,
a White Hole Blazing Beneath The Sheets.
