Good Quotes: My House Is Small
Los Angeles

042909smallroomquote.jpg

An irrelevant cube;
Absurdity
Sucked by gravity
Against immensity;
Walled by diversity;
Roofed by infinity.

-My House Is Small by May Williams Ward, from her collection of poetry, Seesaw (Atlanta: The Bozart Press. 1929)

Jeane...
There's ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know it's a grave?
