Once in a while, when reality would hit
hersomething she couldn't handle in her lovely way, then
she was wild.
--Norma Millay, on her sister, Edna St. Vincent Millay
She sometimes thinks about what simple machines are out there that will make massive change and yield great power from secret places. She wants to be Archimedes. One day she is going to perfect the motivating effects of her grin and she is going to discover a communicative outlet of pleasure from her deep and powerful slumbers. Not only does she want to share her capacity for joy with other people, but she wants to force it upon the people she is forced to interact with; she wants to have an unending supply for herself.
