I've got good feelings about the sixth on for Sanders, however. Let the lamp affix its beam, and all that.

(2,872 posts)4. An excerpt from one of my favorite poems, actually.
Take from the dresser of deal,
Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet
On which she embroidered fantails once
And spread it so as to cover her face.
If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.
Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.
Wallace Stevens, "The Emperor of Ice Cream".
