Poem 7

        The road not taken ...............................Robert Frost


Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth:

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear:
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden back.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads onto way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -
I took the one less travelled by,
And that has made all the difference.

High windows... poem 6

                  Sad Steps......................... Philip Larkin..

Groping back to bed after a piss

 I part thick curtains, and am startled by

The rapid clouds, the moon's cleanliness.

Four o'clock: wedge- shadowed  gardens lie

Under a cavernous, a wind picked sky.

There's something laughable about this,

The way the moon dashes through clouds that blow

Loosely as cannon-smoke to stand apart

(Stone coloured light sharpening the roofs below)

High and preposterous and separate-

Lozenge of love! Medallion of art!

O wolves of  memory! Immensements ! No,

One shivers slightly, looking up there.

The hardness and the brightness and the plain

Far-reaching singleness of that wide stare

Is a reminder of the  strength and pain

Of being young; that it can't come again,

But is for others undiminished somewhere.

Poem 5

           On His Queerness ............   Christopher Isherwood

When I was young and wanted to see the sights,
They told me: 'Cast an eye over the Roman Camp
If you care to,
But plan to spend most of your day at the Aquarium-
Because, after all, the Aquarium-
Well, I mean to say, the Aquarium-
Till you've seen the Aquarium you ain't seen nothing.'

So I cast an eye over
The Roman Camp-
And that old Roman Camp,
That old, old Roman Camp
Got me
Interested.

So that now, near closing time,
I find that I still know nothing-
And am not even sorry that I know nothing-
About fish.
