Poetry
is
a rich,
full-bodied whistle, cracked
ice
crunching in
pails, the night
that
numbs the leaf, the duel
of
two nightingales, the
sweet pea that has run
wild,
Creation's
tears in shoulder blades.
Boris
Pasternak
The
world is full of hopeful analogies
and
handsome, dubious
eggs,
called possibilities.
George
Eliot
