Alton Wood River

Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or river:

“bodies wrapped in elastic bands,
bodies cased in wood or used like telephones,
bodies crucified up onto their crutches,
bodies wearing rubber bags between their legs,
bodies vomiting up their juice like detergent,
bodies smooth and bare as darning eggs.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“The river sweats
Oil and tar
The barges drift
With the turning tide”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
