Anderson Etchings Not to Be Read Aloud WILLIAM SAPHIER LIGHTS IN FOG Weak sparkling assertions In an opal, opaque atmosphere Sharp suffering and Kindly whispering eyes In a wan, olive grey face. You mean all to a few And nothing to the rest. THE OLD PRIZE FIGHTER A rosy, I-dare-you nose On a twisted steel-trellice face, Just some knotty lumber Without a hint of flower or fruit. You tingled many a passion, But never a single soul. Mr. Comstock and the Resourceful Police MARGARET C. ANDERSON
