Highly Polished

“The novelist is required to open his eyes on the world around him and look. If what he sees is not highly edifying, he is still required to look. Then he is required to reproduce, with words, what he sees.”

I could see that each was tight and firm.
Not one of them had trickled blood
waiting as polished as gull beaks,
as closed as all that.”
