Louise Gluck quote ✍️

Quote

Gretel in Darkness: This is the world we wanted. All who would have seen us deadare dead. I hear the witch's crybreak in the moonlight through a sheetof sugar: God rewards. Her tongue shrivels into gas.... Now, far from women's arms And memory of women, in our father's hutwe sleep, are never hungry. Why do I not forget? My father bars the door, bars harmfrom this house, and it is years. No one remembers. Even you, my brother, summer afternoons you look at me as thoughyou meant to leave, as though it never happened. But I killed for you. I see armed firs, the spires of that gleaming kiln--Nights I turn to you to hold mebut you are not there. Am I alone? Spieshiss in the stillness, Hanselwe are there still, and it is real, real, that black forest, and the fire in earnest.
