Lust is the oldest lion of them all.
MARJORIE ALLEN SEIFFERT, "Lorenzo's Bas Relief for a Florentine Chest"
- Yesterday's beauty and joy lie deep
- In sorrow's heart, asleep.
MARJORIE ALLEN SEIFFERT, "Sorrow"
- A bird is three things:
- Feathers, flight and song,
- And feathers are the least of these.
MARJORIE ALLEN SEIFFERT, "The Shining Bird"
- Wretched
- Women!
- When you are wholly lovely
- Man cannot forget either of his two afflictions,
- Soul, or body!
MARJORIE ALLEN SEIFFERT, "Ode in the New Mode"
