Long Poems

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or poems:

    My life has crept so long on a broken wing
    Through cells of madness, haunts of horror and fear,
    That I come to be grateful at last for a little thing.

    Suppertime I float toward you
    from the stewpot
    holding poems you shrug off
    and you kiss me like a mosquito.
