Larkin in reality

Phillip Larkin makes me laugh! His poetry contains such a realism and a sarcastic tone that, whether or not I agree, I respect his words. It takes a raw honesty to be so sweet. His poetry states the silence mny deny yet feel so heavily. Realistic opinions are what drive emotion, heart and will to thrive beyond complacency.

The reality if war is harsh and easily forgotten- especially in today's society. It is a pain staking reminder that life is precious, and can be lost in the everyday baffle of today.
