“Just at the stroke when my veins start and spread,
Set on my soul an everlasting head.

To tread those blest paths which before I writ.”

That givest to forms and images a breath
And everlasting motion,”

“The city is loveliest when the sweet death racket begins. Her own life lived in defiance of nature, her electricity, her frigidaires, her soundproof walls, the glint of lacquered nails, the plumes that wave across the corrugated sky. Here in the coffin depths grow the everlasting flowers sent by telegraph.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
