Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

“In his sleeves, which were long,
He had twenty-four packs,—
Which was coming it strong,
Yet I state but the facts;
And we found on his nails, which were taper,
What is frequent in tapers,—that’s wax.”
—Bret Harte (1836–1902)

“And you teetered on the edge of this
Calm street with its sidewalks, its traffic,
As though they are coming to get you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“... like a
Wave on a beach, that thinks it’s had this
Tremendous idea, coming to crash on the beach
Like that, and it’s true, it has, yet
Others have gone before, and still others will
Follow.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
