Classic and Contemporary Poetry
INTERIOR, by PAUL VALERY Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: With narrow eyes below soft chains, a slave Last Line: Without the apparatus of pure thought. Subject(s): Introspection | |||
With narrow eyes below soft chains, a slave Empties my vases, in the mirror dives, Extends to the secret bed her pure, white hands: Within these walls a modest woman moves Who in my reverie cuts through my vision, Never once endangering abstraction, As by a simple glass the sun is caught Without the apparatus of pure thought. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TOMB POND; FOR DAVE SMITH by NORMAN DUBIE RAREFIED; THE SWEATER IS MADE FROM ONLY THE FINEST SOFTEST UNDERHAIRS by ALBERT GOLDBARTH LEAVING THE ASYLUM by GREGORY ORR PARADISE LIGHTNING DAZZLE: 9.
