I know the colour rose, and it is lovely, But not when it ripens in a tumour And healing greens, leaves and grass, so springlike, In limbs that fester are not springlike.

I hope to go into a poem sober and come out a little drunk. And if I do then that's a real poem.
Dannie Abse
Praying is another way of singing.You plant in the tree the soul of lemons.You plant in the gardens the spirit of roses.
Dannie Abse
Are all men in disguise except those crying?
