We may fool ourselves that we are coping -- as if there were such a thing as not coping.
Case
Porcupine came to consult with Raven and said, "I'm beginning to see the risks in being a teacher."
Raven said, "They're built in."
Porcupine asked, "How do you cope?"
Raven drew herself up and said, "Don't accuse me of coping!"
Case adapted from Robert Aitken; introduction and verse by Meredith Garmon
