Sword Hand

Famous quotes containing the words sword and/or hand:

    your bones,
    round rulers, round nudgers, round poles,
    numb nubkins, the sword of sugar.
    I feel the skull, Mr. Skeleton, living its
    own life in its own skin.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I think I could . . .
    if I’d been different, or wise, or calm,
    I think I could have charmed the table,
    the stained dish or the hand of the dealer.
    But it’s done.
    It’s all used up.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
