SUN-WOMEN
How strange it would be if some women came forward and said:We are sun-women!We belong neither to men nor our children nor even ourselvesbut to the sun.And how delicious it is to feel sunshine upon one!And how delicious to open like a marigoldwhen a man comes looking down upon onewith sun in his face, so that a woman cannot but openlike a marigold to the sun,and thrill with glittering rays.
