My favorite stanza:

"I looked for courage at the medal ceremony, where the awards were being generously announced

She took my eyes away from the honours list and the finished products

To the ordinary moments of prolonged plodding, quiet trial, discomfort and monotony

I am here, she whispered, I am here"

[Angela Joy]
