The Poetry Corner

Interior

By Alfred Lichtenstein

A large space - half dark... deadly... completely confused... Provocative!... delicate... dream-like... recesses, heavy doors And broad shadows, which lead to blue corners... And somewhere a sound that clinks like a Champagne glass. On a fragile rug lies a wide picture book, Distorted and exaggerated by a green ceiling light. How - soft little cats - piously white girls make love! In the background an old man and a silk handkerchief.
