| Notes | Written in the first person, this short lyric meditates on the speaker's mental breakdown. Pursued by men and bullied by a society with fascist sensibilities, the narrative voice expresses a profound sense of alienation and anxiety to survive in a hostile, capitalist culture. The poem is included in the collection The Fly and the Bedbug published by Beaver Row Press (1984). |
