Philip Larkin - To FailurePhilip Larkin - To Failure
Work rating: Low


You do not come dramatically, with dragons That rear up with my life between their paws And dash me butchered down beside the wagons, The horses panicking; nor as a clause Clearly set out to warn what can be lost, What out-of-pocket charges must be borne Expenses met; nor as a draughty ghost That`s seen, some mornings, running down a lawn. It is these sunless afternoons, I find Install you at my elbow like a bore The chestnut trees are caked with silence. I`m Aware the days pass quicker than before, Smell staler too. And once they fall behind They look like ruin. You have been here some time.
