HIPS, by ABU HAFS First Line: Her hips, so wide-distended Last Line: When she attempts to rise. Subject(s): Hips | |||

I think upon their treason And suffer in my reason; And she has aching thighs When she attempts to rise. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOMAGE TO MY HIPS by LUCILLE CLIFTON WOMAN ON THE DANCE by DEBRA MARQUART IN A RESTAURANT by SARA TEASDALE LORD ALCOHOL; SONG by THOMAS LOVELL BEDDOES THE OTHER SIDE OF A MIRROR by MARY ELIZABETH COLERIDGE THE GRAVES OF A HOUSEHOLD by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS |
