Still it would be marvelous
to terrify a law clerk with a cut lily,
or kill a nun with a blow on the ear.
It would be great
to go through the streets with a green knife
letting out yells until I died of the cold.

I don't want to go on being a root in the dark,
insecure, stretched out, shivering with sleep,
going on down, into the moist guts of the earth,
taking in and thinking, eating every day.

I don't want so much misery.
I don't want to go on as a root and a tomb,
alone under the ground, a warehouse with corpses,
half frozen, dying of grief.

That's why Monday, when it sees me coming
with my convict face, blazes up like gasoline,
and it howls on its way like a wounded wheel,
and leaves tracks full of warm blood leading toward the
night.

And it pushes me into certain corners, into some moist
houses,
into hospitals where the bones fly out the window,
into shoeshops that smell like vinegar,
and certain streets hideous as cracks in the skin.

There are sulphur-colored birds, and hideous intestines
hanging over the doors of houses that I hate,
and there are false teeth forgotten in a coffeepot,
there are mirrors
that ought to have wept from shame and terror,
there are umbrellas everywhere, and venoms, and umbilical
cords.

I stroll along serenely, with my eyes, my shoes,
my rage, forgetting everything,
I walk by, going through office buildings and orthopedic
shops,
and courtyards with washing hanging from the line:
underwear, towels and shirts from which slow
<span>dirty tears are falling.</span>

your is a meaning of possessive form of the pronoun you , your is used as a second person decisive adjectives . this means that the word your is always followed by the noun which belongs to or is associated with you. some examples you can usually unlock your mobile phone with your fingers password or face scan , most experts agree that a vegetarian diet is better for your health as well as the environment your is always followed by a noun or rude if one of these is not in the sentence you are probably using the wrong word . you're is the meaning of usage the word you are is a construction of the word you and are the a p o s t r o p h e is a contraction represents letters in this case the missing a some examples have you decided what you're going for holiday , you're my best friend , the easiest way to check if you're using the correct words is the replace the word you're with the words you are if your sentences still makes sense you're using the correct word

In what adjective form or position is the italicized word or phrase? Jonah proposed a three-pronged plan for improvement.
iogann1982 [59]
The italicized word or phrase <em>a three-pronged </em>(if this is italicized, we cannot possibly know) is attributive, as it is an adjective to  describe the plan.
