Ts'its'tsi'nako, Thought-Woman,

is sitting in her room

and whatever she thinks about

appears.

Thought-Woman, the spider,

named things and

as she named them

they appeared.

She is sitting in her room

thinking of a story now

I'm telling you the story

she is thinking.

"You want to be very careful when you criticize {new, eccentric work}... because it may be the hallmark of an emerging style." He {Roethke} knew that our eccentricities are part of our true voice."
