Out of reach for the one who hasn't got wings, the gargoyle leans forward towards the world below. |
It's jutting out from the corner of the roof, so it could conceivably be a gargoyle proper or a grotesque. |
When first I saw the donkey I saw him in the sunlight as the unearthly gargoyle that he is. |
A slight shudder slid over him, footsteps on his grave, a shadowy ghoul with its gargoyle grin threatening to exhume long-buried corpses. |
I must have cut a bitter and pathetic figure, lit up in the flickering candle light like a Shakespearean gargoyle in Dolce and Gabbana trousers. |
Like some horrendous, watchful gargoyle, the Nipe crouched motionlessly on the shadowed roof of the low building. |
