Conrad Aiken Quote

His thoughts were blown and scattered like leaves;
He thought of the pail... Why, then, was it forgotten?
Because he would not need it?


The House of Dust (1916 - 1917)


His thoughts were blown and scattered like leaves; He thought of the pail... Why, then, was it forgotten? Because he would not need it?

His thoughts were blown and scattered like leaves; He thought of the pail... Why, then, was it forgotten? Because he would not need it?

His thoughts were blown and scattered like leaves; He thought of the pail... Why, then, was it forgotten? Because he would not need it?
