Notes - irony /

         Afternoon. You had lunch at Cracker Barrel, and your favorite to boot, chicken pot pie, which was excellent; Carol had her usual perch. Presently you are sitting mostly across from Whitaker's mausoleum facing west. Carol is on page sixty one of Grisham's book. Last night you added a couple of lines to Eliot's "The Hollow Men" and changed the meaning of the poem, at least from your perspective, and you made the poem more positive. How, by adding: "Between the irony And the poetry" below. - Amorella

    Between the conception
    And the creation

Between the irony

And the poetry
    Between the emotion
    And the response
    Falls the Shadow

         1439 hours. If 'irony' is included in the 'idea' then The Hollow Men may not be so hollow after all. They may think they are hollow but they have a heartansoulanmind trinity, so to speak and have more humanity than they might think. Anyway, I like it which is rather strange since I have been rather glum lately.
