UNDERTONES: CENTURY MINDED, by DAVID O'NEIL First Line: They've had their ration of good luck Last Line: "the more there isn't any water." Subject(s): Water | ||||||||
They've had their ration of good luck -- Now there's the beauty of completeness In the faces of old wise men Talking in the sun. Interior smiles Hover like butterflies About their eyes and lips As they meditate on the old proverb: "The more one digs The more there isn't any water." | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...STARS WHICH SEE, STARS WHICH DO NOT SEE by MARVIN BELL WASHING OUR HANDS OF THE REST OF AMERICA by MARVIN BELL WATER, WINTER, FIRE by MARVIN BELL MATE (1) by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON THE SHANNON AND THE CHESAPEAKE [JUNE 1, 1813] by THOMAS TRACY BOUVE |
