The Triumph Of The Egg
A Book Of Impressions
From American Life
In Tales And Poems
By
Sherwood Anderson
In Clay By
Tennessee Mitchell
In the fields
Seeds on the air floating.
In the towns
Black smoke for a shroud.
In my breast
Understanding awake.
Mid American Chants.

Robert And John Anderson
Tales are people who sit on the doorstep of the house of my mind.
It is cold outside and they sit waiting.
I look out at a window.
The tales have cold hands,
Their hands are freezing.
