Deep in the secret chambers of my heart
I muse my life-long hate, and without flinch
I bear it nobly as I live my part.

Claude McKay

Oh, I must keep my heart inviolate
Against the potent poison of your hate.

Claude McKay

Although she feeds me bread of bitterness,
And sinks into my throat her tiger's tooth,
Stealing my breath of life, I must confess I love this cultured hell that tests my youth!
Her vigor flows like tides into my blood,
Giving me strength erect against her hate.
Her bigness sweeps my being like a flood.

Claude McKay
