Belly/music

Famous quotes containing the words belly and/or music:

“her rocking horse was pain
with vomit steaming from her mouth.
Her belly was big with another child,
cancer’s baby, big as a football.
I could not soothe.”

“Words move, music moves
Only in time; but that which is only living
Can only die. Words, after speech, reach
Into the silence.”
