Robert Bly Quote

With Pale Women in MarylandWith pale women in Maryland,Passing the proud and tragic pastures,And stupefied with loveAnd the stupendous burdens of the foreign trees,As all before us lived, dazedWith overabundant love in the reach of the Chesapeake,Past the tobacco warehouse, through our dark livesLike those before, we move to the death we loveWith pale women in Maryland.
