about

Based on unpublished writings by my grandmother, author/activist Tillie Olsen.

lyrics

When they lived, and were young, and the long day done
They put down their chores, and they walked the table round
The hours would pass as the writers would talk
Of people and fancies, and elegant thoughts

Charlotte, Emily, in the house all asleep
Anne, Katherine, in the night’s quiet deep
Whispering, musing, sparking, exchanging

Oh my sisters in pen, my embodied loved ones
When you lived, and were young, and ambition was strong
What might you have spoke, in the hours before dawn?
