Black Lounge

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or lounge:

    My black sun, my
    Odessa sunflower,
    spurs of Tartar gold
    ring at your ankles,
    you stand taller before me than the ten
    towers of Jerusalem.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    I drink the five o’clock martinis
    and poke at this dry page like a rough
    goat. Fool! I fumble my lost childhood
    for a mother and lounge in sad stuff
    with love to catch and catch as catch can.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
