Or buzzed impetuously as before;
One would have thought the corpse was held a slave
To living by the life it bore!”

A Carrion, from Poems (1961).

“Now remember courage, go to the door,
Open it and see whether coiled on the bed
Or cringing by the wall, a savage beast
Maybe with golden hair, with deep eyes
Like a bearded spider on a sunlit floor
Will snarl—and man can never be alone.”

The Wolves, from Collected Poems (1970).

“What is the flesh and blood compounded of
But a few moments in the life of time?
This prowling of the cells, litigious love,
Wears the long claw of flesh-arguing crime.”
