We might fall.Come to the edge.
Come to the edge.
It's too high!
COME TO THE EDGE!
And they came
And he pushed
And they flew.
by Christopher Logue *from New Numbers (London: Cape, 1969) pp. 65-66.
This was originally written for a poster advertising an Apollinaire exhibition at the ICA in 1961 or 1962, and was titled "Apollinaire Said"; hence it is often misattributed to Apollinaire (Source: Quote…Unquote Newsletter, July 1995, p. 2).
