Cannot bear very much reality.
Time past and time future
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
-T. S. Eliot, Four Quartets
Someone found the future as a statue
in a fountian at attention
looking backward in a pool of water
wishes with a blue
songbird on his shoulder
who keeps singing over everything
everything means nothing to me
-Elliott Smith, Everything Means Nothing to Me
Cannot bear very much reality.
Time past and time future
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
