I hold my honey and I store my bread
In little jars and cabinets of my will.

And none can tell when I may dine again.

Hoping that, when the devil days of my hurt
Drag out to their last dregs and I resume
On such legs as are left me, in such heart
As I can manage, remember to go home,
My taste will not have turned insensitive
To honey and bread old purity could love. — Gwendolyn Brooks
