Charles Simic Quotes

This Strange Thing Must Have Crept
Right Out Of Hell.
It Resembles A Bird's Foot
Worn Around The Cannibal's Neck.
As You Hold It In Your Hand,
As You Stab With It Into A Piece Of Meat,
It Is Possible To Imagine The Rest Of The Bird:
Its Head Which Like Your Fist
Is Large, Bald, Beakless, And Blind.
