    “In Florida consider the flamingo,
    Its color passion but its neck a question.”
    —Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    “In his sleeves, which were long,
    He had twenty-four packs,—
    Which was coming it strong,
    Yet I state but the facts;
    And we found on his nails, which were taper,
    What is frequent in tapers,—that’s wax.”

    “Come mothers and fathers
    Throughout the land
    And don’t criticize
    What you can’t understand
    Your sons and your daughters
    Are beyond your command
    Your old road is rapidly agin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
