Sexton

Famous quotes containing the word sexton:

    Oh you brown bacon machine,
    how sweet you lie,
    gaining a pound and a half a day,
    you rolled-up pair of socks,
    you dog’s nightmare....
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Parked, at last,
    on a dime that would never last,
    I ran through the airport.
    Wild for love, I ran through the airport,
    stockings and skirts and dollars.
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    In this place everyone talks to his own mouth.
    That’s what it means to be crazy.
    Those I loved best died of it
    the fool’s disease.
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
