“In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
Of how life should be.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“The King said to his son: Enough of this!
The Kingdoms yours to finish as you please.
Im getting out tonight. Here, take the crown.”
