"You can't break eggs without making an omelette

- That's what they tell the eggs."

"The lights go down and eyes

Look up across the room;

Salome comes in, bearing

The head of God knows whom."

Louis MacNeice, 1907-1963, Night Club.

"Don't think

that I don't know

that as you talk to me

the hand of your mind

is inconspicuously

taking off my stocking,

moving in resourceful blindness

up along my thigh.

Don't think

that I don't know

that you know

everything I say

is a garment."

Anne Stevenson, 1933-, "Sous-Entendu".
