Ok, before anyone sends a personal message or phones me thinking that I am teetering on the brink, staring into the gaping void of my mortality, because of this (and the fact that it is Tuesday, which, as some who know me better than others, is often not a "good day" for me due to a particular pharmaceutical regime), I am actually in a relatively "good place" today. Indeed this is partly prompted by my current reading of Philip Larkin (and remembering T.S. Eliot) and thinking "Maybe I'm not as cynical or miserable as some..." Anyway, with that brief preamble here is a "Thought for the Day."
Whether measured out in cake candles
Or coffee spoons,
Or in my case,
squeezed-out toothpaste tubes,
Life surely should
Life surely should
Be something much more
Than death in slow motion.
