Not a feminist

Ran across Hannah Arendt half way in my writing of ‘the political and the personal’. When she drafted this little poem and put it to her own file, did it ever occur to her that it may someday go public?

This book’s dedication has been left out.
How should I dedicate it to you,
To the most trusted one,
To whom I remained true
And untrue
And both in love.
