My God...what a work! The first poem I've encountered I think that expresses something I deeply feel, far more eloquently than I ever could. I suppose everyone has at least one such poem, even if they never find it. I know now that this is mine.

Yeats and water ... I suppose he means he was a dilluted Yeats? I'm going to use this from now on.

... it held unspilt So long and equably what since is found Only in separation - marriage, and birth, And death, and thoughts of these... A serious house on serious earth it is, In whose blent air all our compulsions meet, Are recognised, and robed as destinies. And that much never can be obsolete

I haven't seen Larkin since he told me of for tying my bike to the railings outside his library. He had a sign made saying st like 'no bikes to be chained to the railings here' and it was attached to the railings, and generally ignored by cyclists. He flung up the window and screamed 'Look at the sign! Can't you read?" I looked at him and said, "Hola Senor, que quieres?" He slammed the window down in a temper. He didn't vandalise my bike while I was away from it. · Reply · 21 h
