Re: Favourite lines of poetry/verse?
there's a great Derek Walcott poem - called Bleecker St. -1962, I think.
short poem - about a couple languishing away on the rooftop in NYC as summer comes to an end - and I don't have it memorized verbatim, I remember the last line...
"I would laugh and dry your damp flesh if you came."
the whole image of the poem, short as it is, is great -
