Julia Origo poetry: Observations

 

Julia Origo

(1965 – 2005)

O b s e r v a t i o n s

 

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)
