You killed the old man and his cats,
ten billion tiny fish,
and broke the lake your mirror.
Bad luck lady.
The grey Quaker woke
and the cities of the plain
beheld, and shook,
cast ashes on their heads,
crying Lady be good!
Unkind: O plumed
unmaker,
fire-womb,
O dancer!
– from “Grey Quaker”, by Ursula K. Le Guin
