Because I now have nothing better to do with my time, I'm going to post poetry, once a day for the next week, where the poem reflects some aspect of my mood at the time.

Ode On A Grecian Urn - John Keats )

For shame, Penny, for shame. It is not inscribed onto the surface of a Grecian urn, but it rather on the topic of a Grecian urn (in the same way that Sophie is writing a doctoral thesis on mathematics)

In what way does this reflect your mood?

Beauty frozen permanently and perfectly, maintained for all eternity. Beauty and truth and happiness with underlying hints of melancholy.

Dr. Tom, as always, is aweome.

When we did the romantic poets at school, I always had a soft spot for Keats. Such a horny, tragic little fellow. I mean, it would have been awful to know that you would die soon.
