last year's words
Jan. 1st, 2011 04:39 pm For last year's words belong to last year's language
And next year's words await another voice.
But, as the passage now presents no hindrance
To the spirit unappeased and peregrine
Between two worlds become much like each other,
So I find words I never thought to speak
In streets I never thought I should revisit
When I left my body on a distant shore.
T. S. Eliot, from "Little Gidding"

So I find words I never thought to speak

When I left my body on a distant shore.
