John Ashbery Quote

Life is not at all what you might think it to be
A simple tale where each thing has its history
It's much more than its scuffle and anything goes
Both evil and good, subject to the same laws.

Selected Poems (ed. Penguin Group USA, 1986)

Life is not at all what you might think it to be A simple tale where each thing has its history It's much more than its scuffle and anything goes...
