Paul: did you walk away
EY: I didn't walk away. See below.
Paul: ...because she laughed and dismissed the
real sufferer?
because she laughed at a woman who actually had
experienced what she had merely feigned,
because of her sadistic abuse of that woman, an
audience member who had made herself vulnerable
because of the poem,
because of her role as the "superior" poet, who
walked away from the woman as though she were garbage,
and because my dropping her as a friend was a long
time coming
