"It scrubs
And scours; it chews rocks
To sand; its embraces
Leave you without breath. Mostly
It is a stomach, where bones,
Wrecks, continents are digested.

Still a few books to move on, but not this one. Bought in the late 80’s when exquisite prints like these were being ripped out of books for framing.
The illustrations by Keith Henderson in particular are breathtakingly beautiful.
