A cartoon by Davey Jones for Viz Comic. The title is "The Collected Poems of Philip Larkin in Space" We see a starship pilot warning: "Captain Larkin, our ship is caught in the gravitational pull of Doom Planet... moment by moment, we are inching inexorably towards oblivion!" Larking replies: "Tell me about it."

Life is first boredom, then fear.
Whether or not we use it, it goes,
And leaves what something hidden from us chose,
And age, and then the only end of age.

- Philip Larkin, Dockery and Son
born on this day, 1922

Philip Larkin was 31 years old when he constructed this observation of the beauty and power of the individual perception of human existence. #Poetry #PhilipLarkin #Art

Philip Larkin died of cancer on December 2 1985.
"I am going to the inevitable," he said to the nurse who was holding his hand.

Ask Brits to (mis)quote what they regard as the most memorable poem, & it'd probably be this!

A nation o'erbrimming with joie de vivre! 😁

The trees are coming into leaf
Like something almost being said;
The recent buds relax and spread,
Their greenness is a kind of grief.

From The trees by Philip Larkin

Went back to paint more trees over the weekend.
