Famous quotes containing the words electric and/or eels:
“Flabby, bald, lobotomized,
he drifted in a sheepish calm,
where no agonizing reappraisal
jarred his concentration of the electric chair
hanging like an oasis in his air
of lost connections. . . .”
—Robert Lowell (19171977)
“Going down for the last time, the last breath lying,
I grapple with eels like ropesits ether, its queer
and then, at last, its done. Now the scavengers arrive,
the hard crawlers who come to clean up the ocean floor.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
