“This biplane is the shape of human flight.
Its name might better be First Motor Kite.”

“Mark you the floore? that square & speckled stone,
Which looks so firm and strong,
Is Patience:”

“Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
