With some friend that has the wit
Not to allow his looks to tell
When I am unintelligible.
Fifteen apparitions have I seen;
The worst a coat upon a coat-hanger.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Death,
you lie in my arms like a cherub,
as heavy as bread dough.
Your milky wings are as still as plastic.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
