Dani Bostick in McSweeney’s:
WHITMAN: Are you the new person drawn toward me?
SWIFT: Saw you there and I thought, “Oh, my God, look at that face. You look like my next mistake.”
WHITMAN: To begin with, take warning, I am surely far different than what you suppose.
SWIFT: You’re the “kind of reckless that should send me running,” but I kinda know that I won’t get far.
WHITMAN: Do you suppose you will find in me your ideal?
SWIFT: I knew you were trouble when you walked in.
WHITMAN: Do you think it is so easy to have me become your lover?
SWIFT: Got a long list of ex-lovers. They’ll tell you I’m insane ’cause you know I love the players and you love the game.
