This is inhuman – yet it’s mine.
— Marina Tsvetaeva, ‘Wires’ Bride of Ice: New Selected Poems (translated by Elaine Feinstein)
This thing of darkness I Acknowledge mine.
— William Shakespeare, The Tempest
I am terrified by this dark thing   That sleeps in me; All day I feel its soft, feathery turnings, its malignity.
— Sylvia Plath, ‘Elm’
