Hot Gas Manifold

Famous quotes containing the words hot, gas and/or manifold:

    Too often when you thought you’d be showered with confetti
    What they flung at you was a plate of hot spaghetti
    You’ve put your fancy clothes and flashy gems in hock
    Yet you pause before your father’s door afraid to knock
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)

    Odysseus saw the sirens; they were charming,
    Blonde, with snub breasts and little neat posteriors,
    —John Streeter Manifold (b. 1915)
