anne sexton
i shot
a rabbit once for food, i am not pristine, i am not good,
i am in no way jesus, i am in no way even the bad mary
let alone the good, though i have held my living son
in the pièta pose, i didn't know at the time i was doing it
but now that i look back, he'd overdosed and nearly died,
my heart, he said, his lips blue, don't worry, i've paid.
