Burst

Famous quotes containing the word burst:

Greensnakes slither.
Rather burst than
Not be with her.”

burst from the spidery-mother-web,
burst from Woman herself
where too many had laid out lights
that stuck to you and left a burn
that smarted into your middle age.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“No burst of nuclear phenomenon
That put an end to what was going on
Could make much difference to the dead and gone.”
