Legs

Famous quotes containing the word legs:

    But I am here,
    And they are far, and time is old.
    Within my dream the grass is cold;
    The legs and locked; the sky is dead.
    Mark Van Doren (1894–1973)

    the small tuft of fronds or katydid legs above each eye, still
    numbering the units in each group;
    the shadbones regularly set about the mouth, to droop or rise
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

    your antlers like seaweed,
    your face like a wolf’s death mask,
    your mouth a virgin, your nose a nipple,
    your legs muscled up like knitting balls,
    your neck mournful as an axe....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
