Spider Legs

Famous quotes containing the words spider and/or legs:

“But chief to heedless flies the window proves
A constant death; where gloomily retired,
The villain spider lives, cunning and fierce,
Mixture abhorred! Amid a mangled heap
Of carcases in eager watch he sits,
O’erlooking all his waving snares around.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)

“I live in my wooden legs and O
my green green hands.
Too late
to wish I had not run from youpollo,
blood moves still in my bark bound veins.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
