I know my mind
Edna St. Vincent Millay
1892 to 1950
Track 1
Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

They have not craved a cup of water more
I do desire your kiss upon my mouth;
That bleach upon the deserts of the south;
In this, that is my portion to the end.
Your presence and your favours, the full part
Mistake me not—unto my inmost core
Not even you can trouble or betray.
Is bow me down, that have been loved by you.
Here might you bless me; what you cannot do
What lies between your beauty and my heart
I know my mind and I have made my choice;
Love me or love me not, you have no voice
Not from your temper does my doom depend;
That you could give, you now can take away:
