Ash Bed

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or bed:

    The last cobwebs
    of fog in the
    black firtrees are flakes
    of white ash in the world’s hearth.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    But today I set the bed afire
    and smoke is filling the room,
    it is getting hot enough for the walls to melt,
    and the icebox, a gluey white tooth.
    I have on a mask in order to write my last words,
    and they are just for you....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
