Famous quotes containing the words shape and/or earth:

    “The shape of a rat?
    It’s bigger than that.
    It’s less than a leg
    And more than a nose,
    Just under the water
    It usually goes.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    “The heavy sensual shoulders, the thighs, the blood-born flesh
    and earth turning into color, rocks into their crystals,
    water to sound, fire to form: life flickers
    uncounted into the supple arms of love.”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
