“I am the spouse. She took her necklace off
And laid it in the sand. As I am, I am
The spouse.”
Notes Toward a Supreme Fiction (1942), It Must Change
Context: I am the spouse. She took her necklace off
And laid it in the sand. As I am, I am
The spouse. She opened her stone-studded belt. I am the spouse, divested of bright gold,

Than nakedness, standing before an inflexible
Order, saying I am the contemplated spouse.
