Wing Bones

Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or bones:

“The wild touch of thy dye-dusty wing!
I found that wing broken today!”

“There are knives that glitter like altars
In a dark church
Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
To be healed.

There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed”
