FALSE COLORS by CHRISTOPHER DARLINGTON MORLEY

Poet Analysis

First Line: DO NOT BE ALARMED BY THE TRUCULENCE
Last Line: IN THE IRON GLOVE.
Subject(s): POETRY & POETS;
DO not be alarmed by the truculence
Of my poems.
I myself am timid, dilatory,
Fond of plenty of gravy,
And I hate liquor.
My motto is, the velvet hand
In the iron glove.
