Explore "Magnolia Flowers" by Langston Hughes on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The quiet fading out of life / In a corner full of ugliness.
I went lookin' for magnolia flowers / But I didn't find 'em.
I went lookin' for magnolia flowers in the dusk / And there was only this corner / Full of ugliness.
'Scuse me, / I didn't mean to stump ma toe on you, lady, / There ought to be magaolias / Somewhere in this dusk.
'Scuse me, / I didn't mean to stump ma toe on you.
