Darker

Famous quotes containing the word darker:

“So summer comes in the end to these few stains
And the rust and rot of the door through which she went.
The house is empty. But here is where she sat
To comb her dewy hair, a touchless light,
Perplexed by its darker iridescences.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Leaves and bark, leaves and bark,
To lean against and hear in the dark.
Petals I may have once pursued.
Leaves are all my darker mood.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“But things get darker as we move
To ask them: Whom must we get to know
To die, so you live and we know?”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
