Husband John

Famous quotes containing the words husband and/or john:

    “An evil moon bleeds drops of death.
    The earth burns brown.
    Grass shrivels and dries to a yellowish mass.
    Earth wears a dun-colored dress
    like an old woman wooing the sun to be her lover,
    be her sweetheart and her husband bound in one.”
    —Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    “thinking of
    leaning on the john door in the 5 SPOT
    while she whispered a song along the keyboard
    to Mal Waldron and everyone and I stopped breathing”
    —Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
