| Poetry from the New Hope Journal While Virginia Woolf walks to Fernham --The beauty of the world which is soon to perish, has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. --Virginia Woolf A Room of One's Own Before going out for the evening One must have accomplished something that day. Not necessarily, as in the old days, something physical. A well articulated observation would do. Not pretense mind you, but measured conviction. Or a very good soup. We have lost that sentiment now (if we ever had it), Overcome as we are by self-pity and the internet. We stay at home now, "keeping our own counsel," And nursing our dreams. --Larry L. Dill, 2004 |
