Because these wings are no longer wings to fly
But merely vans to beat the air
The air which is now thoroughly small and dry
Smaller and dryer than the will
Teach us to care and not to care Teach us to sit still. T.S. Eliot

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the windowpanes, The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the windowpanes T. S. Eliot

S’io credesse che mia risposta fosse a persona che mai tornasse al mondo, questa fiamma staria senza piu scosse. T. S. Eliot

~immediate compensation for the pains of turning blood into ink. As things are, and as fundamentally they must always be, poetry is not a career, but a mug's game. T. S. Eliot
