Today's Poem - T. S. Eliot's "Four Quartets"
Yes, I Tackled Time today.
T. S. Eliot's poem, "Four Quartets."
Cheated? Yup. Eliot, himself, recites the longish work - on You Tube! I wonder what he would think of so many of us deciding to listen instead of read.
His reading lasts almost fifty six very poety minutes - so I admit to skimming and ignoring and PAYING ATTENTION as time went on.
I cleaned my work desk and Eliot read on.
At times a line forced me to put Mr. Eliot in reverse so I could replay his pointy words.
"Home is where we start from."
"Old men ought to be explorers."
"Distracted from distraction by distraction."
Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. Eliot, I got distracted.
(Be be continued. Really.)
