I have done research: Jennifer McBride lives in a castle, in a room, walled with books, her learning surpasses all of the kingdom's, combined. She has been touched by the gossamar touch of the gods when they wish to touch lightly. She is Repunzel, no, wait, that is not what I meant not at all, she is Rumpelstiltskin. No that too is wrong. Surely there was a tale of a woman spinning gold while in a tower? If not, perhaps we have found her.
one wonders. do adult girls look back at fairy tales and simply wish the prince had never shown up? That they could have live in peace in the tower, or slept a while longer?
There is no death and rebirth that doesn't come with a little pain. Or a lot. And yet, that is a vital component of the majesty of it all, isn't it? Thank you as always, Jennifer.

I think I would! Iβd ask him to come back later so I could have another half hour! π
Beautiful and magical with undertones much darker than one typically expects for a poem about the Phoenix.
Thank you so much β€οΈ
