Two Old Friends


YouTube: now in widescreen.





The thought of writing came to me to-day
(I like to give these facts of time and space);
The bus was in the desert on its way
From Mothrudslur to some other place:
The tears were streaming down my burning face;
I'd caught a heavy cold in Akureyri,
And lunch was late and life looked very dreary

Letter to Lord Byron
Part One
W.H.Auden
