Sun Bleached

Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or bleached:

    “As the shade went up
    And the ambulance came crashing through the dust
    Of the new day, the moon and the sun and the stars,
    And the iceberg slowly sank
    In the volcano and the sea ran far away
    Yellow over the hot sand, green as the green trees.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Surely I remember the hooks
    of her fingers curled on mine, though even now
    will not admit the times I did avoid this street,
    where she lived on and on like a bleached fig
    and forgot us anyhow....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
