“GOING to him! Happy letter! Tell him—
Tell him the page I did n’t write;
Tell him I only said the syntax,
And left the verb and the pronoun out.
Tell him just how the fingers hurried,
Then how they waded, slow, slow, slow;
And then you wished you had eyes in your pages,
So you could see what moved them so.
“Tell him it was n’t a practised writer,
You guessed, from the way the sentence toiled;
You could hear the bodice tug, behind you,
As if it held but the might of a child;
You almost pitied it, you, it worked so.
Tell him—No, you may quibble there,
For it would split his heart to know it,
And then you and I were silenter.
“Tell him night finished before we finished,
And the old clock kept neighing ‘day!’
And you got sleepy and begged to be ended—
What could it hinder so, to say?
Tell him just how she sealed you, cautious,
But if he ask where you are hid
Until to-morrow,—happy letter!
Gesture, coquette, and shake your head!”
Emily Dickinson.

Translation in English
E lucevan le stelle,
e olezzava la terra
stridea l'uscio dell'orto
e un passo sfiorava la rena.
Entrava ella fragrante,
mi cadea fra le braccia.
O dolci baci, o languide carezze,
mentr'io fremente le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d'amore.
L'ora è fuggita, e muoio disperato!
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!
How the stars used to shine there,
How sweet the earth smelled,
The orchard gate would creak,
And a footstep would lightly crease the sand.
She'd come in, fragrant as a flower,
And she'd fall into my arms.
Oh! sweet kisses, oh! lingering caresses,
Trembling, I'd slowly uncover her dazzling beauty.
Now, my dream of love has vanished forever.
My last hour has flown, and I die hopeless!
And never have loved life more!

Too many to mention. However, I am not a typical fiction reader
I see :) I do believe however that being a womanist is at the detriment of the feminist movement, for it pushes more so for diversity within a "unit" but it is my way of seeing it... :) thanks for the reply
Is the combination split evenly, 50/50 or is one more than the other. If so, which one supersedes the other and why? When does your womanist self comes to the forefront, example please...and that is "IF" the quote is about you.. oh yes hello :)
Oh wow the composition of your vocabulary reflects and heighten remarkable yet profound depths that forces one two reach behind the words of your written text. Do you speak in the same mannerism as your writing; I found my self intrigue with envies of your thoughts about your experience with respect to the human behavior in general. What is your concentration or your specialization in human behavior?
is that so... you must be a philosopher then..
it takes distinctive discipline to acquire and master both skill sets..
he or she that does acquire such skill set is a very unique and talented individual..
