From The Penitent Hours

SARAH:
You should talk to the anarchist.
That’s the right thing to do.

ANNE:
No way Jose!
He wouldn’t be able to help out at all and that would only irritate me.
 I just endured five (aggh!) years of having
To be accountable to a jerk!
This is my decision.  Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine.
Nobody’s going to boss me around this time!
I’m so sick of men swinging their elbows into my face.
Stretching out in their suits two times the size of me
My whole personal world turned into a body to be commented on.
Stop looking at it like it’s yours for the taking.  ‘Cause it’s NOT.
All those skyscrapers and cameras and weaponry and fishing rods
And hunting jackets and PHD programs and music critics and Joyce lovers.
Gross!
Sometimes I just can’t stand being a nice lady
Who wants to make people feel good around her.
If I’m not getting seduced I’m getting bossed around
And you know, most of the time I like it!
Most of the time I think they’re right!
Oh my god.  I want to die!
I really want to lay down and die.
No I don’t. No I don’t.
I didn’t mean to say that I don’t.
