By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.”

“There are knives that glitter like altars
In a dark church
Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
To be healed.
There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed”

“The duties which a police officer owes to the state are of a most exacting nature. No one is compelled to choose the profession of a police officer, but having chosen it, everyone is obliged to live up to the standard of its requirements. To join in that high enterprise means the surrender of much individual freedom.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“Playing snooker gives you firm hands and helps to build up character. It is the ideal recreation for dedicated nuns.”

Sprouting despondently at area gates.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
