Quaker Gap

Famous quotes containing the words quaker and/or gap:

    this old Quaker graveyard where the bones
    Cry out in the long night for the hurt beast
    Bobbing by Ahab’s whaleboats in the East.

    the gap of today filling itself
    as emptiness is distributed
    in the idea of what time it is
    when that time is already past
