To the sigh of the string, see Pandar’s shot float off;

To the slap of the string on the stave, float on
Over the strip for a beat, a beat, and then
Carry a tunnel the width of a lipstick through Quist’s neck.
–Christopher Logue, All Day Permanent Red: The First Battle Scenes of Homer’s Iliad Rewritten
