Delmore Schwartz Quotes
That Inescapable Animal Walks With Me,
Has Followed Me Since The Black Womb Held,
Moves Where I Move, Distorting My Gesture,
A Caricature, A Swollen Shadow,
A Stupid Clown Of The Spirit's Motive,
Perplexes And Affronts With His Own Darkness,
The Secret Life Of Belly And Bone,
Opaque, Too Near, My Private, Yet Unknown,
Stretches To Embrace The Very Dear
With Whom I Would Walk Without Him Near,
Touches Her Grossly, Although A Word
Would Bare My Heart And Make Me Clear,
Stumbles, Flounders, And Strives To Be Fed
Dragging Me With Him In His Mouthing Care,
Amid The Hundred Million Of His Kind,
The Scrimmage Of Appetite Everywhere.
