Marianne Moore Quote

Victory won't come

to me unless I go
to it; a grape tendril
ties a knot in knots till

knotted thirty times


Collected Poems (ed. 1961)


Victory won't come to me unless I go to it; a grape tendril ties a knot in knots till knotted thirty times

Victory won't come to me unless I go to it; a grape tendril ties a knot in knots till knotted thirty times

Victory won't come to me unless I go to it; a grape tendril ties a knot in knots till knotted thirty times

Victory won't come to me unless I go to it; a grape tendril ties a knot in knots till knotted thirty times
