Lauren Groff Quotes

She Winced To Remember Herself At Seventeen, In High School, How, After The First Illuminating Weekend, Everything Spoke Sex To Her. The Way The Light Pulsed The Leaves Of The Ragweed In The Ditches, The Way Clothes Teased Her Skin As She Moved. The Words Leaving A Person's Mouth, How They Were Tongued, Rolled, Lipped Before They Emerged. It Was As If The Man Had Suddenly Reached Into Her And Pulled Out An Earthquake And Set It Loose On Her Skin. She Walked The Last Weeks Of High School Wanting To Eat Every One Of These Delicious Boys. If She Had Only Been Allowed, She Would Have Swallowed Them Whole. She Smiled At Them Hugely; They Scurried Away. She'd Laughed, But Felt It Was A Shame.
