Wet

Famous quotes containing the word wet:

    “A bone,
    polished in wet and sun,
    worried of wild beaks,
    and of the whelps’ teeth
    worried of flesh,
    left to bleach under the sun.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “The great secret is no secret
    Senses fit the winds,
    Visible is visible,
    rain-mist curtains wave through the bearded vale,
    grey atoms wet the wind’s Kaballah”
    —Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    “the tide lays down its wet throat
    and alters the land to island—even as I watch
    I say there is no shore
    apart from stories of it,
    no smoke, no hut, no beacon ...”
    —Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
