    “Old men who never cheated, never doubted,
    Communicated monthly, sit and stare
    At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
    Where a young man lands hatless from the air.”
    —Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)

    “So, Anactoria, go you away
    With what calm carelessness of sorrow!
    Your gleaming footstep and your grace,
    When comes another morrow,
    Much would I rather then behold
    Than Lydian cars or infantry.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
