Short Stem

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or stem:

    Chess is ruthless: you’ve got to be prepared to kill people.

    Bite down
    on the bitter stem of your nectared
    rose, you know
    the dreamy stench of death and fling
    magenta shawls delicately
    about your brown shoulders laughing.
