Rotting Meat

Famous quotes containing the words rotting and/or meat:

“Remember? We sat on a slab of rock.
From this distance in time,
it seems the color
of iris, rotting and turning purpler,

but it was only
the usual gray rock”

As sweetly Lady, give me leave to tell ye,
This little Pipkin fits this little Jelly.”
