There are many archetypes and themes we all share as we experience life. Reading together has been shown to have a therapeutic effect. In the light of this Nursing and Library staff have worked together to set up a reading group for an in-patient ward. There will be 10 x 1 hour sessions based on 10 themes. There will be two staff members (including a Librarian) at each meeting. Attendees are encouraged to stay for the session but an open group policy is adopted. Time is flexible – but the session will last an hour at its longest. Initially staff will read a poem and open the group to discuss using the following structure: - what is happening in the text (in terms of themes, descriptions, language) – “What was the poem about?” - what may be happening within themselves as individuals (in terms of reflection about personal experiences, feelings and thoughts) – - “Did you like it?” Reading aloud and open ended discussion is encouraged. Support is available after the meeting if anyone would wish to discuss any issues the session raises. Halloween and Ghosts I felt a Funeral, in my Brain by Emily Dickinson I felt a Funeral, in my Brain, And Mourners to and fro Kept treading - treading - till it seemed That Sense was breaking through - And when they all were seated, A Service, like a Drum - Kept beating - beating - till I thought My mind was going numb - And then I heard them lift a Box And creak across my Soul With those same Boots of Lead, again, Then Space - began to toll, As all the Heavens were a Bell, And Being, but an Ear, And I, and Silence, some strange Race, Wrecked, solitary, here - And then a Plank in Reason, broke, And I dropped down, and down - And hit a World, at every plunge, And Finished knowing - then - The Ghost by Sara Teasdale I went back to the clanging city, I went back where my old loves stayed, But my heart was full of my new love's glory, My eyes were laughing and unafraid. I met one who had loved me madly And told his love for all to hear -- But we talked of a thousand things together, The past was buried too deep to fear. I met the other, whose love was given With never a kiss and scarcely a word -- Oh, it was then the terror took me Of words unuttered that breathed and stirred. Oh, love that lives its life with laughter Or love that lives its life with tears Can die -- but love that is never spoken Goes like a ghost through the winding years. I went back to the clanging city, I went back where my old loves stayed, My heart was full of my new love's glory, -- But my eyes were suddenly afraid. The ghosts are walking again by Susan Williams the ghosts are walking again walking and talking in the night again sorrow is eating my bones again the fog is creeping again creeping and seeping through the cracks again fear is fracturing my bones again the shadows are whispering again whispering and weeping by my bed again despair is sundering my bones again the ghosts are walking again the fog is creeping again the shadows are whispering again ..............and I? ..............I'm feeling like dust again ..............the unknown is leaching the marrow out of my bones again The Listeners by Walter De La Mare ‘Is there anybody there?’ said the Traveller, Knocking on the moonlit door; And his horse in the silence champed the grasses Of the forest’s ferny floor: And a bird flew up out of the turret, Above the Traveller’s head: And he smote upon the door again a second time; ‘Is there anybody there?’ he said. But no one descended to the Traveller; No head from the leaf-fringed sill Leaned over and looked into his grey eyes, Where he stood perplexed and still. But only a host of phantom listeners That dwelt in the lone house then Stood listening in the quiet of the moonlight To that voice from the world of men: Stood thronging the faint moonbeams on the dark stair, That goes down to the empty hall, Hearkening in an air stirred and shaken By the lonely Traveller’s call. And he felt in his heart their strangeness, Their stillness answering his cry, While his horse moved, cropping the dark turf, ’Neath the starred and leafy sky; For he suddenly smote on the door, even Louder, and lifted his head:— ‘Tell them I came, and no one answered, That I kept my word,’ he said. Never the least stir made the listeners, Though every word he spake Fell echoing through the shadowiness of the still house From the one man left awake: Ay, they heard his foot upon the stirrup, And the sound of iron on stone, And how the silence surged softly backward, When the plunging hoofs were gone. All Hallows Eve by Michael R. Burch In the ruins of the dreams and the schemes of men; when the moon begets the tide and the wide sea sighs; when a star appears in heaven and the raven cries; we will dance and we will revel in the devil’s fen ... if nevermore again. The Hour and the Ghost by Christina Rossetti - 1830-1894 O love, love, hold me fast, He draws me away from thee; I cannot stem the blast, Nor the cold strong sea: Far away a light shines Beyond the hills and pines; It is lit for me. Bridegroom I have thee close, my dear, No terror can come near; Only far off the northern light shines clear. Ghost Come with me, fair and false, To our home, come home. It is my voice that calls: Once thou wast not afraid When I woo’d, and said, ‘Come, our nest is newly made’— Now cross the tossing foam. Bride Hold me one moment longer! He taunts me with the past, His clutch is waxing stronger; Hold me fast, hold me fast. He draws me from thy heart, And I cannot withhold: He bids my spirit depart With him into the cold:— Oh bitter vows of old! Bridegroom Lean on me, hide thine eyes: Only ourselves, earth and skies, Are present here: be wise. Ghost Lean on me, come away, I will guide and steady: Come, for I will not stay: Come, for house and bed are ready. Ah sure bed and house, For better and worse, for life and death, Goal won with shortened breath! Come, crown our vows. Bride One moment, one more word, While my heart beats still, While my breath is stirred By my fainting will. O friend, forsake me not, Forget not as I forgot: But keep thy heart for me, Keep thy faith true and bright; Through the lone cold winter night Perhaps I may come to thee. Bridegroom Nay peace, my darling, peace: Let these dreams and terrors cease: Who spoke of death or change or aught but ease? Ghost O fair frail sin, O poor harvest gathered in! Thou shalt visit him again To watch his heart grow cold: To know the gnawing pain I knew of old; To see one much more fair Fill up the vacant chair, Fill his heart, his children bear; While thou and I together, In the outcast weather, Toss and howl and spin. Alone by Edgar Alan Poe From childhood's hour I have not been As others were; I have not seen As others saw; I could not bring My passions from a common spring. From the same source I have not taken My sorrow; I could not awaken My heart to joy at the same tone; And all I loved, I loved alone. Then—in my childhood, in the dawn Of a most stormy life—was drawn From every depth of good and ill The mystery which binds me still: From the torrent, or the fountain, From the red cliff of the mountain, From the sun that round me rolled In its autumn tint of gold, From the lightning in the sky As it passed me flying by, From the thunder and the storm, And the cloud that took the form (When the rest of Heaven was blue) Of a demon in my view.

  • The Great Replacement
    The Great Replacement Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, Do not go gentle into that good night. Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light. And you, my father, there on the sad height, Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray. Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Introduction It’s the birthrates. It’s the birthrates. It’s the birthrates. If there is one thing I want you to remember from these writings, its that the birthrates must change. Even if we were to deport all Non-Europeans from our lands tomorrow, the European people would still be spiraling into decay and eventual death. Every day we become fewer in number, we grow older,we grow weaker. In the end we must return to replacement fertility levels, or it will kill us. To maintain a population the people must achieve a birthrate that reaches replacement fertility levels.

  • Refrain, Again: the Return of the Villanelle
    Refrain, Again: The Return of the Villanelle Amanda Lowry French Charlottesville, VA B.A., University of Colorado at Boulder, 1992, cum laude M.A., Concentration in Women's Studies, University of Virginia, 1995 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Virginia August 2004 ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ___________________________________ ABSTRACT Poets and scholars are all wrong about the villanelle. While most reference texts teach that the villanelle's nineteen-line alternating-refrain form was codified in the Renaissance, the scholar Julie Kane has conclusively shown that Jean Passerat's "Villanelle" ("J'ay perdu ma Tourterelle"), written in 1574 and first published in 1606, is the only Renaissance example of this form. My own research has discovered that the nineteenth-century "revival" of the villanelle stems from an 1844 treatise by a little- known French Romantic poet-critic named Wilhelm Ténint. My study traces the villanelle first from its highly mythologized origin in the humanism of Renaissance France to its deployment in French post-Romantic and English Parnassian and Decadent verse, then from its bare survival in the period of high modernism to its minor revival by mid-century modernists, concluding with its prominence in the polyvocal culture wars of Anglophone poetry ever since Elizabeth Bishop’s "One Art" (1976). The villanelle might justly be called the only fixed form of contemporary invention in English; contemporary poets may be attracted to the form because it connotes tradition without bearing the burden of tradition. Poets and scholars have neither wanted nor needed to know that the villanelle is not an archaic, foreign form.

  • Dylan Thomas - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Dylan Thomas - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Dylan Thomas(27 October 1914 – 9 November 1953) Dylan Marlais Thomas was a Welsh poet and writer who wrote exclusively in English. In addition to poetry, he wrote short stories and scripts for film and radio, which he often performed himself. His public readings, particularly in America, won him great acclaim; his sonorous voice with a subtle Welsh lilt became almost as famous as his works. His best-known works include the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood and the celebrated villanelle for his dying father, "Do not go gentle into that good night". Appreciative critics have also noted the craftsmanship and compression of poems such as "In my Craft or Sullen Art", and the rhapsodic lyricism in "And death shall have no dominion" and "Fern Hill". <b>Early Life</b> Dylan Thomas was born in the Uplands area of Swansea, Glamorgan, Wales, on 27 October 1914 just a few months after the Thomas family had bought the house. Uplands was, and still is, one of the more affluent areas of the city. His father, David John ('DJ') Thomas (1876–1952), had attained a first-class honours degree in English at University College, Aberystwyth, and was dissatisfied with his position at the local grammar school as an English master who taught English literature. His mother, Florence Hannah Thomas (née Williams) (1882–1958), was a seamstress born in Swansea. Nancy, Thomas's sister, (Nancy Marles 1906–1953) was nine years older than he. Their father brought up both children to speak only English, even though he and his wife were both bilingual in English and Welsh.

  • GUY CHAMBERS „Go Gentle Into the Light“
    GUY CHAMBERS „Go Gentle Into The Light“ VÖ: 03. Mai 2019 BMG Guy Chambers ist nicht nur ein exzellenter Multiinstrumentalist, Komponist, Producer und Musical Director – ebenfalls stellt er eine Hälfte der erfolgreichsten Songwriting-Partnerschaft in der Geschichte der britischen Popmusik dar: Um genau zu sein, handelt es sich bei ihm um den etwas weniger im Rampenlicht stehenden Songwriting-Partner von niemand Geringerem, als Robbie Williams. Schon in jungen Jahren war Guy ständig von Musik umgeben. Sein Vater war Flötist im berühmten London Philharmonic Orchestra, seine Mutter war für das Decca-Plattenlabel tätig. Schon mit 5 Jahren konnte Guy Klavierspielen und komponierte seine ersten eigenen Stücke im Alter von 11. „Ich hatte einen großartigen Musiklehrer, dem auffiel, wie gerne ich improvisierte. Also spielte er mir Duke Ellington und Dave Brubeck vor.“ Mit 13 erlernte er außerdem noch das Gitarrenspiel und verdiente schon wenig später Geld in Coverbands sowie an den Wochenenden als Pianist in diversen Pubs und Clubs. Er schrieb sich an der Guildhall School Of Music ein und avancierte zum aller ersten festangestellten Pianisten im Groucho Club. Das Klavier war Guys erste wirkliche Liebe. „Das Klavier ist der König unter den Instrumenten. In Orchestern findet man es oft in der Percussion-Sektion, weil es sehr aggressiv sein kann. Jemand wie Little Richard zum Beispiel hat es als Teil der Rhythmussektion benutzt. Aber es verfügt auch über eine unglaublich poetische Seite. In melodischer und harmonischer Hinsicht bietet es alle Möglichkeiten. Dieses Instrument verfügt über so viele Klangfarben, dass es niemals langweilig wird.“ Guy Chambers verstärkte Julian Cope, Jimmy Nail und The Waterboys als Keyboarder auf Tour, bevor er 1986 Mitglied in Karl Wallingers World Party wurde.
