Sexton

Famous quotes containing the word sexton:

    and yet hands, hands growing out of pictures,
    hands crawling out of the walls,
    hands that excite oblivion,
    like a wind ...

    You are a roast beef I have purchased
    and I stuff you with my very own onion.
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Death,
    I need my little addiction to you.
    I need that tiny voice who,
    even as I rise from the sea,
    all woman, all there,
    says kill me, kill me.
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
