“Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.”
Wallace Stevens book Harmonium
"The Emperor of Ice Cream"
Harmonium (1923)

Context: Take from the dresser of deal,
Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet
On which she embroidered fantails once
And spread it so as to cover her face.
If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.
Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.
